Great public space that is well maintained and safe. They do a light show at the splash fountains on Saturday nights plus there is a well equipped playground and plenty of green space. Huge pavilion that is perfect for birthdays or other events.

A very nice area with a nice view of the river. The trail is a bit strenuous at the beginning for older people but is very flat once you get to the bottom near the river. The trail runs along the canal from the dam area to the next bridge to the west.
