Description




Hidden at the end of Louisiana Avenue, this small sliver of nature is a quiet community spot where people picnic and play cricket in the summer. Beyond the trails, the paths accommodate bike riding, yoga, and reading. The park connects to Shirley Chisholm State Park, though traveling between them requires navigating some exceptionally bumpy roads. While the space is mostly peaceful and empty, visitors should prepare for occasional odors from a nearby sewage plant.
