A secret gem in the neighborhood. With a concrete wading pool that gets filled during the day it's a great place for parents and kids to cool off in the summer. The playground is "oldschool", but still provides lots of fun. You will often find locals picnicking in the large open fields, a great place to also watch all the bikes zip past the Adanac bike path. With three local breweries a stone's throw away, it's an easy choice for a chill afternoon/evening hang out.

My go-to: Cool off in the concrete wading pool in the summer. Grab a six-pack from Bomber and chill on the benches. Great spot to eat your cone form Earnest.
