As we pulled up we saw people looting the remains from the building and sneaking out through a hole the chain-link fence. The grass of the park is dead and covered in those spiny balls that cling to dog fur and socks. Incredibly unpleasant to walk through. I'm not sure what the floor of the playground was. It looked like wood chips infested with other debris but I couldn't tell. The playground in general was okay despite only having 2 swings. I saw lots of happy kids on it. There is no bathroom there so you have to leave if you need the facilities. I have zero desire to ever return...

→Scene Decently clean. Cute playground. Nice and grassy. Could use more shading for the hot summers. It's a cute little park tucked away in a cute neighborhood.
→Smell Can we all agree that some parks, not all, have a smell that's like walking into a porta potty? This park thankfully does not.
During the day, I'm sure this park if cute. At night, screaming blue heads in all their adorable aggression.
7/10...
