Medal of Honor Park — Attraction in Boston

a park w/a very nice fully fenced playground & splash pad that i bring my children to multiple times a week. the medal of honor park is a beautiful, shaded park with a veterans memorial in the middle. the park has lots of grass & many big old trees. always a nice breeze there. my complaint is only towards the people who walk with their dogs off leash every single time i am there. it’s unsafe and ppl often don’t realize their dog has pooped and they fail to clean it up so i’ve stepped in my share of dog poop. regardless, my children & i absolutely love the tot lot & splash pad at this park. it has a very nice playground for all age levels as well as swings and a splash pad. my only complaint is ppl are always leaving SO much trash on the ground when there are plenty of trash cans. it’s really frustrating because it’s often very small things that are easy to choke on and the playground is for TOTS. if you ever see me there i am often picking up trash and i always try to leave the playground better than when we found it. i don’t want my daughter (who loves to chew on random things) to accidentally eat trash or sharp broken plastic. parents- please pick up your trash & also teach your children to throw away their trash & to be considerate of...

The plant had been in service for over 150 years the 3 plants on site had a total of 5 smoke stacks! The power plant site is now in final approval process for zoning change to...

the " new South Boston people" treat it like a dog park. They have a bran new one less than a block away. It's for kids and would be nice if the new SB would stop bringing their dogs there. They are limiting a small enclosed area for the kids. It's just ridiculous. Some of the kids are afraid of dogs especially ones off...
