Best place to walk after a meal for me memories of when I grew up before it became what it is now I could tell you many many stories of all the places trees flowers the fountain and the memorial my grandparents both retired from ball band or some say uniroil and never got a dime for their retirement $47 a month... The real truth at the park is not known cuz there's no respect in this world for what happened in the past my grandfather was world war II and Korean war and I hope people care about is money and what they can see now the beauty of what it is now and to me it's fake I played in this park since I was five with my cousins I know every inch of this Battell Park before it became what it is now. And people just walk by and never even think of the history.. I'll be 49 in 2 weeks I've lived here all my life there's no respect from the public from people about the land and what it used to be
