My experience at Joe W. Brown Park was an amazing experience I go there almost everyday they have really fun activities you can indulge in every week or so I go to Archery every Thursday it is a very fun stress relieving activity I love to participate in ... You can come and fish there its a great place to bring the kids to have a family pick nick there are multiple playgrounds for the kiddos and it is very safe and clean there I would 10/10 recommend you to visit Joe W. Brown Park

Thankful to have this park in our community of New Orleans East! It is well maintained and used by the community. The only issue is if it allows fishing why is the foliage allowed to grow high around the water areas limiting you to only the dock by the gym.This will not stop me for going and enjoying the rest of the park.The park offers shelters, play areas, a great track and walking paths.

This is a nice park in New Orleans East. Its got a walking path that meanders through the park, a running track, sports fields, gym, pool, playground equipment, and outdoor activities. During certain times of year, they offer free canoeing and fishing for the general public on Saturdays. NORDC has done a good job with this park.

While I like that this place looks a bit like an abandoned sports complex map in like Fort Nite or whatever, there aint nothing at all to do in this park unless youre part of an official sports event, which obviously no longer exist in the apocalypse. Great for drug deals, probably.

Gorgeous facilities. We used the victory track and field for our O-D All American Bowl games. Bathrooms and concessions were as good as any High School! The parking is a little confusing and you can end up going in circles if you dont know that there are large Lots if you keep going straight back!

Joe Brown park has really improved since my childhood. The Outdoors experiences- canoeing, fishing, hiking, and camping are superb for beginners. They have everything you need; just bring yourself and get in touch with nature. You can also enjoy several other sports such as tennis, track, baseball, basketball, and swimming. Ample parking and innovative playgrounds.

The security was oddly rude and controlling, During the McMain vs. Carver Game. Definitely dont understand the reasoning behind seating arrangements. The guest was very upset after being moved several times. I dont have any future plans of returning. Its unfortunate.

Went there on 13 June 2020 water looked yucky. Doesn’t look like any fish could live in it. Grass was high all around it. Park rundown. A lot of people walking. Sucks drove from gulfport.

Possibly one of THE BEST parks in the entire city. Its easily accessible from the major roads, not far from the interstate, beautiful scenery and nature scenes, plenty restrooms (even though you have to bring your OWN soap because they NEVER have any), plenty covered picnic areas, boat and fishing lessons free, huge rec center, plenty benches to sit and watch nature, Audubon Nature Institute is inside it, plenty nature trails, and an ample playground. They do need to install baby swings though, because there are children of ALL ages that frequent this park that could better be accommodated.

Review №45

They only have about 4 swings. Need more swings for the kids to swing on the playground. There he about 30 kids out there waiting on a chance to swing. Oh and they need to also put baby swings. For the little babies who would like to swing.

This is an excellent park! My fiancé and I had a chance to learn how to play tennis yesterday. Our instructor Kamal was great! He took his time to teach us proper form and different techniques. He was patient with us and all his students, also very knowledgeable. It was a fun activity and we look forward to coming regularly. We also come during the week to run on the track. I look forward to seeing what else the park has to offer.
