North Point Park in Cambridge, MA, is a hidden oasis along the Charles River. Its modern playground, stunning views of Zakim Bridge, and the serene boardwalk over wetlands create a perfect blend of urban and natural charm. Ideal for picnics, cycling, or simply unwinding by the water.

Beautiful park with cool events in the summer. Good for dogs and kids! They also have tables and grills. Grills are locked but you can borrow them from the building in front leaving an ID

A pleasant little urban oasis within walking distance of North Station (it's right off the EZRide too) that offers great views, nice benches to relax on, and some great walkways through a nicely designed park. A worthy spot to enjoy your coffee.

This is my favorite park. It's got great skyline views against the Charles River. It's ample, wothlots of grassy areas for a picnic or to play with your leashed dog (don't be that person - leash your dog).Playground: I don't have kids, but if I did, I'd bring them to this playground. This is a fancy playground!!! Soft, bouncy surface, a separate splash pad, two other large play areas with many, many forts, bridges, tunnels and swings. Also, rope climbing. What!? I wish I had this type of playground growing up.PS: the playground is fenced, but it's not 100% enclosed (no gate). So keep that in mindRestrooms: No restrooms on site, so plan accordingly, but it is a lovely, lovely park

Let's begin with the real drawback that's really worth 1 star and that's the lack of parking. This area was clearly designed for those who live or work there, not for the other person that wants to enjoy it, but I'm glad my tax dollars helped support it.Now for the 5 star, it's a great family area or solo, to walk, read, play, e.t.c. the playground is very well laid out for the very young up to the older kids. Very near by is a skate park that was fun to check out as people of all ages were on stunt bike, skateboard, razor... wicked narley bro ?. All in all a very good take, if you can find parking

North Point is an absolute gem. Not only does it safely connect walkers to North Station/Charlestown/Cambridge, it's absolutely gorgeous and has incredible playgrounds for the kiddos. So many kudos to the city planners for this one!!!

A scenic riverside park that gives you a way to cross the river without worrying about street traffic. Even at night it's very nice.

Great park in East Cambridge. Wonderful for strolling - day or night - with a skate park, easy connection to Charlestown/Boston, and amazing views of the Zakim Bridge - especially at night!

North Point Park is another decent park for photographing the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge. The park is not big, but well maintained for walking and jogging. Due to the limited parking spots nearby, it may not be a favorable place for tourists. It is popular with residents nearby, which gives a quiet place for recreation. The park is connected with Paul Revere Park by walkways. Visitors can take pictures from both sides of the Zakim Bridge. The lights along with the walkway are usually on in the evenings. If the metered parking spaces are occupied, some additional spaces are available on the north side of the building of the Education First (EF). Enjoy this neat and quite place for summer.
