A big ol' green space in Brookside, complete with a baseball diamond, tennis courts, a newly revamped playground, Trolley Trail access and sledding (formerly and inappropriately known as Suicide Hill now Brookside Hill).Like many parks, this one benefits from its location in the neighborhood, and is easy to walk to for thousands of homes nearby. It is, in my opinion, not a destination park like Loose Park or Westwood Park are for many. The playground up at the top of the hill has been redone and it's pretty nice; sandbox, slides, a spinner, and pretty traditional things to do for the kids. There's nothing to climb if you have an adventurous kiddo, but plenty of other fun things.In the winter, this is *the* sledding hill for the area, and although it's been many years, I have good memories of this one. This summer season, Wild Way Coffee is setting up on Sunday mornings right by this park which is nice, and it's good to have some green space for the dogs and kids to run.
