What visitors say

★★★★★

No transition at this skatepark but it has plenty of good street features. Different sized down ledges, flat ledges, rails, stairs and banks. You can definitely find something to session. The Belmont ledge replicas are a bit hard to skate and so is the rounded off quarter pipe…

★★★★★

Really enjoyed the euro gap at this park. It sort of has centre stage with its own runup between the cobbles (never seen a park with that much non-skateable area) Plenty of other ledges and hips and rails dotted about, although the general feel of the park was a little outdated …

★★★★

Neighborhood isn't the nicest I wouldn't suggest being at this park after dark but in the day time it looks like it's a very fun filled park. I believe it has a skate park, some kind of recreation center, a teen center and there's even more areas that they've managed to squeeze …

★★★★

Cool park, sometimes trash left behind and sticky floors from the kids
