I appreciated the many well-placed benches inside the park, and there are more picnic tables just outside."

"When googling parks I found this one and liked what I saw. I’m not a local this was a one time thing. Super fun! My son enjoyed playing here. He loves climbing and there was so much to climb.

If you want to see the Tin man he is located on the corner and the Scarecrow is inside the garden in front of the playground. Didn’t see and didn’t look for the Lion. There are benches for the parents to sit. I also saw picnic tables. There’s a Target on the corner of Webster & Larrabee St. As a mom I need this"
