One of the best parks in MA. Smooth cement park with three different size bowls and a variety of street features. Has something for all skill levels but can get busy.

Clean, lots of space, good people! Would be nice if there was a Santi can or public bathroom nearby. There is an ice cream truck that makes an appearance occasionally

Great skatepark, plenty to do and people are curious. Mixed with beginners ( me) and experienced. The people on scooters can be the in your face type and come up right behind you but thats not new.

Very cool park! Right under the highway bridges. A lot of different jumps and bowls to play on and in!

Large park. Even if packed relatively easy to get in a run. The small bowl is a ton of fun. Large bowl pool coping is properly set. Perfect size flat bar.

Great park. Most people are cool. Usual jerks here and there... parking is slightly better in a covid-19 world. When it is busy the majority of people there do not respect social distancing or mask usage.

Incredible design, perhaps the best in MA. Like any downtown city park it gets crowded... but its absolutely the park Boston needed for years.

Big park, lots of different features, flat ground, bowls, ramp, anything u want its there. Parking is difficult but they are in the mindst of building a parking lot. No bathrooms unfortunately. Good time though!

Come here regularly to shore up my action sports shots. Always a fair bit of sk8ers of all ages enjoying doing there thing and without criticism or bullying.. it is one of my favorite virtual neighborhoods anywhere. And as far as the photos... Lets let them speak for themselves

Large lot, varied skate features. More bikes and scooters than boards. Lots of smoking of everything. Better to come early morning with kids. Some old dudes lurking around too. Walking trails, playground, and beautiful Charles River views outside the skatepark. Not much parking but close to Lechmere and Science Museum stops on the green line.

Drove there from southern maine had a great time beautiful skatepark HUGE variety street set up gaps. Ledges, stair sets hand rails, flatground rails boxes. Vert set up 3 bowls very generous size excellent quarter pipes and hip transfers. Highly recommend checking it out. Well worth the drive.

Great park with something for everyone. The street course has a variety of obstacles including a recreation of a local favorite. The 3 bowls (2 with real pool coping) give you options from about 3 feet to about 13 feet deep. The middle bowl is pool like with tight transitions. The pro bowl is big and fast with a shallow end that is almost too mellow.

Lynch park is a hell of a place. Tremendously smooth, lots of fun stuff to skate. But come on now Cambridge yall gotta keep the lights on til 10!

Review №21

This place is my favorite to go with my buddy and skateboard. Plenty of kids (who are better than me on razor scooters) have fun there, too. Im a newbie so was intimidated at first but everyone is there to have a good time and enjoy the beautiful days. People look out for each other. Tourists also can enjoy coming here while walking around the Charles River to see some people do some really cool moves. SHRED IT!!!

Impressive park. Gets busy fast so clearly the city needs more of this kinda stuff. Don’t even try to park around here. There’s no street parking whatsoever and no pay lot for 1/2 mile. My kids are total beginners and there is enough space and structures that it’s a great place to start.

Great park full of tall ramps and huge bowls. Very busy on weekends. Welcome to all levels of skaters but recommended for intermediate to advanced.

Large skatepark with something for everyone. A large portion of the park is under the bridge so it was pretty dry after some rain. The lights stay on until 9pm at night.

Review №43

Possibly the greatest free outdoor skatepark in New England. Parking is tough in the area, but it’s usually possible to park for free right next to the skatepark as long as you’re around to move it in case it’s necessary.

This is clearly a world class concrete skate park especially compared to any others in the area. Anyone who rated it less than 5 should be ashamed. Its a fun park for all skill levels, ages & genders. It gets crowded but dont be intimidated just keep your head on a swivel. (come weekday mornings for less crowds)

Review №48

Too many bikers and scooter kids come here at certain times. I recommend going later in the day around 6 for a clearer area. The skate park is nice overall. Not very much of a flow but it can be worked with. Lots of different bowls and rails and stair sets.

Great place. Not too terrible to get to, though parking can be a pain. It has EVERYTHING a skater needs in one spot. Don’t skip an opportunity to skate the best park in Boston.It took me 4 visits to actually have the guts to skate. Weekends are mayhem. Go early in the day to avoid the crowds and scooters.

Review №56

Best skatepark In Massachusetts and probably New England. They actually are currently installing stadium lights at the park it can get crowded around 1-5 on weekends so if you want a quiet ride come early on weekends and 10am-2:30pm about is pretty quiet on weekdays

I recommend getting there and looking for a parking spot in the lot before you look for one outside or down the street because I’ve missed a few close spots and have to walk a few blocks.

The park is awesome but some of the people are wreck less. Its really over crowded there at all times. If you are under 13 dont be surprised if you get bodied by another person.

Good park but super crowded. No lights, no bathroom, no water fountains, and had to park a half mile away. There were “no parking” signs every where and parking on the street was full.

Review №80

This place was cool! Lots of people of all ages, families and groups of friends, beginner to advanced type of obstacles. Maps gave me poor driving directions, however, and sent me over the Tobin bridge into Chelsea - somebody fix that! Im from around here and it was still confusing. Somebody add a proper street address for this place, please!

One of the best public skate parks in New England. Now has lights. Could use a water fountain!

Nice spot

Br
Review №83

It is a beautiful skate park in a great location - under the boston bridges so it is not soaked completely in the sun all day long . there was previously a parking lot there, but is currently closed, which is a bit of an inconvenience. either for renovation or possibly to extend it to the lot behind the park . you can find metered parking depending on the time of day you go. It is located next to an office park so you tend to have the employees taking up mosy of the spots. Tends to be crowded in the summer time so not good for a young kid learning how to ride . most of the kids are considerate of eachother and will look out as to avoid collisions
