I pulled in to take a break from driving and eat my dinner in the car. I then noticed an older gentelman walking by and sat a pavilion next to me. One minute later a pollice officer stopped to ask me what i was doing there. He also asked me if i knew the man sitting near by. I replied that he just now sat down. He told me i was not allowed after dark but i was with my daughter and no other place to go at the moment and figure i was just hungry and looked like a nice spot. At 7 pm i guess noone is allowed. I just wonder how come they didnt stop to talk to the man that was sitting nearby and i had to leave when he just stared at me smoking a ciggar and like he owned the park i figured he must be the guy who called the cops. I left and he stayed smoking...

It's in okay park... Kiwanis park located in the Harris Park neighborhood. Not a lot to it. Basketball court, work out station and a fenced in kids playground.

Their parents obviously don't care while sitting 50 ft away talking to their girlfriends or boyfriends. There is a area for grilling with picnic tables and shelters, but I wouldn't trust them. Kind of scetchy most of the time, except when people are having family or friends get together, but I'm sure they don't think of sterilizing the tables first. No restrooms there either. Most of St Pete's parks are awesome, but this one could...
