The park is about 3.2 acres in saize. There is an area in the center that has 5 tables to sit 4 people each. Each table has a chest board embedded on top. After i finished eating, a family of people came by to do a BBQ graduation party there. 20 people can sit comfortably there. All you see is mostly families. People walking theie dogs, riding the bikes. There were kids on mini scooter. It has been tough during this pandemic of 2020. There was a little girl, she must have been about 6 years old, on her scooter saaying to her friend. "This is the best day ever". This should remind us how important these parks are to the inner city. There plenty of benches and almost all of them had someone sitting, reading or dozing off. The path which encircles the park on the inside has plenty of room for soneone to ride their bike while walking with 2 or 3 other people next to them. A few people had their Bluetooth speakers playing music. They were not playing too loud. The day was peaceful and tranquil. Another group of people came towards the North entrance and started another BBQ. The North entrance also faces the Saratoga Village NYC housing. It was truly a nice day...

While the dogs play many dog parents are there exchanging advice its really neat. One thing that would be nice is if they closed in a small area for dogs and it doesnt even have to be the center it could be any where. Oh and there is a new pet shop called Whos Your Doggy right across the street from the park...great way to reward and end the day...

If you're coming to the park, leave your hipster apathy at home - Be the person your dog...
