What a wasted space. Even though it was being used as a walkway, kick a ball, run the dogs sort of place it could be so much more with the right planning . Everyone loves the park.

Not suitable for soccer games. Mud wrestling yes. With all the boundary developments you would have thought the council would leverage a portion of the developers pay packet to manage maintain or even improve the park.

The new playground (upgraded in Dec 2020) is a major disappointment and a missed opportunity from Moreland Council to create a much needed community focal point in the area.The kids' playground equipment is third rate, sparse and cheap, and the 'exercise' equipment is even worse, like they were purchased off a supplier having a firesale on their least popular and useless equipment.There's no shade in either the playground or BBQ area so it's usability is constrained to very limited weather conditions.The surrounding lawns have not been improved, in fact they're probably worse than before the 'upgrade' due to the heavy machinery used, so there's nowhere nice to lay a picnic rug.The whole upgrade is such a big disappointment.With so much development (and planned development) in the area, incl. Balfe Park Lane which will 'unlock' the park to people on the other side of Nicholson Street, and the revenue (and people!) that comes with all that development, this was a great opportunity for genuine community placemaking; instead, it's hard to see how this park has been improved at all from the dire state it was in previously. Thumbs down from me.

Excellent enclosed park to take dogs off the lead,Hard for humans to get the the kids park next to it, either have to jump over or go under the fence. Dogs have no issuesUnsure when the park is used for sports nil clear time tableNil toiletsThere are flats being built literally next to the park so I assume there will be loud noisy machines during the day

I walked here with the dog, stayed to watch the Brunswick Juventus U-12s demolish the away team 18-0. Excellent atmosphere, pitch condition was quite poor though.

This place holds dear memories of past years and friends still being friends..The big gum trees next to the children playground were dangerous and had to go.. The park ist still a great fun place to go.

Recently renovated with new playground equipment, including adult exercise equipment too.Adjacent to the Brunswick Zebras Soccer pitch, this park has plenty of space and activities for a wide variety of ages. The story circle a favourite of ours.

Yep, the friendliest spot for your dog to take you out to meet people, and sniff butt...
