Farquhar Park — Attraction in York

I really wish I could give this park a higher rating. I love coming here, and it's one of the few places around with hills to run up and down. The park does have a bathroom, but it's rarely open (mostly just open holiday weekends from what I can tell and other seemingly random times). When you use the bathroom, they always have soap, papertowels, and toilet paper, but there are no doors on the stalls. There are also weird things left inside the bathroom like toys and an assortment of creepy crawlers (to be expected with outdoor bathrooms). The park also has lots of Pokestops and Gyms if you like playing Pokemon Go. The main issue I have with the park is all of the goose poop and dog poop. You really have to watch where you step. If you dare go down near the lake, it gets even worse. There are times when it's almost impossible to walk because there is so much poop but also times when there is almost no poop at all. There are several tennis courts, and there's always at least one free. There's a basketball court and a playground with a tire swing. They also have those health activities around the park (pushups, pullups, stepups, hanging leg raises, hip rotation, situps, etc.), and it's nice to see people...

Highest elevation in York City. Farquhar Park is a long established park named after the Quaker that supplied the land. In the middle of the park is a historic wooden bandstand in good condition and still used at least once a year for its original purpose. Around the park is a paved walking/jogging path with installed "fitness stations". Still covered in mature oaks though the city has been replacing them with randomly placed "whatever gets donated" for years. There are tennis courts, basketball courts, and a decent set of swings and playground equipment. There is one covered pavilion with picnic tables that can be reserved with the city for outings, reunions, etc. Parking is extremely limited. This is a traditional...
