Pros: Large; great for sports; decent playgrounds; near the water; great views; very nice paved trail; free; ample parking most of the time Cons: maintenance can be poor, especially in the non-summer months; often floods and stays flooded; attracts all stripes, but a good portion of whom have poor park etiquette

I love this park … it has a fitness trail you can walk, run or bike, with regular stops with simple exercise equipments(no need to pay for the gym! — the new one by Park Road is especially nice) … the trail goes along the nice view of inlet and passes through /by(depending on how you walk it) Ithaca Children’s Garden, the Turtle Gaia, playgrounds, athletic fields, ice skating rink, dog park, bird panels, and much more. Really nice walk all the way down to the adjacent State Marine Park. They put a chemical called Sonar(?) in water to fight invasive species recently so there is a warning sign all around … But the littering, as with all the other locations around Ithaca, is really eye sores … I found a heap of trash by an audience stand at one of the athletic field. Plastic bags and bottles and such. These items do not decompose and hurt our biosphere … please, I hope people will realize their foolishness, and stop littering. There should be signs all over Ithaca, or wall arts to combat littering … I love those relatively new wall arts all around Ithaca, but I think adding anti-littering messages will be a very good touch.
