Thomas Jefferson Park — Attraction in Irving

This park is great to walk around and spend time taking a peaceful breath. The park has children playarea as well. It has a broad area that surrounds a big water pond. Walking paths have been nicely built.

One thing I always complain about Texas parks is they lack restrooms. This park has a same problem. Even though there is a temporary toilet near children playarea, I would suggest the city and park management to build a permanent restroom that would be very helpful in many regards. The place where the Gandhi statue has been built would have been better if it had restroom near by.

It is a nice park, with lots of space for parking, walking or even playing. There are 3 covered sitting areas, useful for picnics and other such gatherings.

There is a paved trail for walking, jogging and/or running; as well as multiple benches for resting. For the kiddos, there are a basketball goal, two playgrounds, a swing set and a...
