Nice Park... Its improved much in recent years with the addition of workout stations along the parks walkway... Lots of green, the water is always comforting, and the restrooms are sanitary.. Peace and grace to everyone.

Great little park with tables and seating by the Grand River in/near downtown Grand Rapids. Watch the sunset, walk your dog, lets kids play in the playground area, and there are even a couple of pieces of exercise equipment for adults! There are restaurants across the street if you’d like a drink or bite to eat.

GR has done an incredible job creating a park for all intents and purposes from Fulton St all the way to Leonard along the East shore of the Grand river with educational information about Grand Rapids in general and our beautiful Grand River...if only peple could realize what is offered and told about Grand Rapids and the river maybe we could find those blue waters from the past that used to flow to our Great Lakes... .

I like to take my kids here for 4th of july. we pack a cooler, hang out for the day at the park, and then walk closer to downtown when the fireworks are close to starting. when they are all over we walk back to the car. by that time the traffic has calmed down and when we get home every one falls asleep without problems :-)
