Like to take my dog here to run at night. Unfortunately the homeless has infiltrated the very tiny tree area and made it their own. They are trashing up the park that has great potential in an up and coming area

Reservable fields and lights. Always good to have more open space in this area. Usage seems to be increasing as people just want to get out of the house.
