Heat playground for little kids. It doesnt have a flat grassy area if youre looking for a place to play ball. It is, however, full of trees so its nice and shady during the summer and has plenty to crunch in the fall. In the mornings, its mostly families and day area. Most of the day area who visit are very respectful of other kids--and often remind them to watch out for the "babies." Plenty of adults use the park too. All of my friends have at least one story of people drinking or smoking pot near the playground. So as with any city park, just be aware of whats going on.

We love this park for our young children. Families visiting the playground are always very friendly, and its so much quieter than Malcolm X Park. There are sometimes people smoking weed, like at most city parks, but they do clear out away from the playground when kids show up.

I walk past this Park on my way to and from Aldi and other stores on 48th Street. Well maintained. Mostly used for dog walkers; local Elementary School uses the playground for their students. Friends of Barkan regularly clean and plant flowers within the Park.

Its nice if you have kids, as they will enjoy the swing set and play area. Other than that, it is a small grassy hill with a few benches. Nothing special. Locals and homeless people tend to hang out here, often smoking.

Small park for the neighbors. Close to a larger park but not as busy. Easier for young parents ( or babysitters) to feel comfortable.
