Description

Named for the 20th-century track icon, this compact neighborhood hub is known for its well-maintained grounds and active local crowd. Alongside the active zones, there is a basketball court and shaded seating areas for parents and spectators. Families with toddlers particularly frequent the shallow baby pool, a safe, low-depth option distinct from the standard spray fountains, while the open layout makes it a popular spot for summer birthday gatherings.
