The park has some very nice scenery around it with the oak trees, native plants, and sometimes the quietness there, but its also great place where you can release your stress at as you can enjoy some walking around the park or sit down at one of the benches there and enjoy nature. However, I do share some concerns about it that maybe Lambert can gets some upgrades if possible. First of all, one of the playgrounds (there are 2 of them fyi) there seems to be very outdated that it really deserved an upgrade to a much bigger playground and set of swings and possibly have one of those workout equipment you may have seen at other parks like Rosemead and Acero. Secondly, I believe the park could use parts of it's unused space to add some features, especially the top right corner. It would be awesome to have a outdoor basketball court there, which could add some diversity to the park and there are some space to actually build one!

Read moreIt's a good sized park with plenty of parking in the shade. No one bothers you if you want to sit in your car or on a bench and enjoy the scenery. But people are super friendly and peaceful. They walk, jog, adults play cards and kids play sports. I recorded this scene of a young coopers hawk munching on a pigeon while trying to fly away with it, landing all around my car in the parking lot. Ended up in the tree above me then took the prey landing on a fence and finally flew away with the left overs. Absolutely awesome. Poor coopers hawk though. They must be losing the deep forests where they belong to end up in such a human-populated place such as this. None-the-less, I feel blessed to...
