Beautiful breathtaking view! I love how the park is kept. Was clean, no litter. Thank you for taking care of the park. One thing though, I would love to see Berry trees for the birds and acorn trees for the squirrels.
This is suggestion: I would love it if parks had an education center to teach people and children on the different trees; how they originated and how to take care of them. Also teaching why it's wrong to litter how important it is to keep the park clean and tidy. Teach them about the free animals in the park. The nature of the squirrels their purpose, how they originated, how they came to live at the park, how they live and how they enjoy life at the park, and how they add beauty and curiosity to the park. Teach about the different birds aka their names, how they originated, how they came to the park, their nature at the park, their behaviors, their purpose and how they live. For appreciation of these wonderful and unique birds teach how they are therapeutic with their chirping and such. The lessons is to show how they are a life and innocent and how we should show appreciation and will teach them to have respect for nature and it's beautiful inhabitants. Also a craft supply room will be nice; with books on craft we could do with the fallen leaves and twigs we see around. Just feel that will encourage everyone to clean up the fallen leaves and do something creative with them. Craft to make bird houses and birdbath. I feel that's SO important. I feel will teach the children to respect nature and help take...
Read moreGreat park with huge green space, very clean and well cared for. Large covered pavilion with picnic tables and grills, have seen a lot of people taking advantage of the space with birthday parties. Bathrooms are very clean (women’s at least) but only have one stall despite not having a lock on the door. There are two sinks with soap and hand dryers though and plenty of space for more than one person outside of the stall. Nice playground area and there’s an outdoor exercise area with some equipment as well.
Park is open 5am-11pm and has a small parking lot but there are ample on street parking spaces and you can park in them after hours if needed. This is a great place to bring your dog or kids or just hang out under a shade tree on a blanket and read. There’s no free wifi here like in Central Park and Boulder Reservoir, I’m new to Boulder and was trying to figure out which parks had wifi so I’ll add that. It’s in a very quiet, safe neighborhood, backed up against the Flat Irons and is accessible to Pearl Street and just a few blocks off Broadway. Great park, my personal favorite here in...
Read moreLots of open space, paths for kids to ride bikes /scooters on, ample play structures, swings (baby, kid & handicap), and even a ping-pong table on the other side of the covered picnic area. There is also a grown up exersize equipment area, which I've seen a lot in Brazil, but not so much in the US (my kids love it, though it probably isn't the most safe place for small kids to play).
This park does have bathrooms which is a major positive. There is also ample parking if you don't live close enough to walk/bike.
My only complaint, and reason for a docked star, is that the playground floor is pebbles. If you have a baby who likes to put things in their mouth, or hate tracking pebbles home, you'll know why I hate pebble playground so much. If they updated to a different material (like rubber) it would...
