Nice green space with picnic tables and grills beneath mature trees lakeside. See the duck, geese and Ibis. Watch the tadpoles. Watch the bottom feeders. Listen to the fountain. Enjoy nature. Nice area across from the Riverwalk between Veterans Memorial Park and Fort Mellon Park. Plenty of area to lay down a blanket and spend a few hours to reflect on the beauty the world has to offer and tune out all the negativity.

It’s a little lake right in front of the Riverwalk that you can sit and relax and feed the wildlife at your leisure. Good vibrations of ambience.
