This park is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!…read more Lucky for us, my family moved in this area and Greenwood Park is within walking distances. With it's infamous 3 towering flower structure that offers beauty and shade, you can't miss it!! While there are the typical play structures found at typical parks, Greenwood has a number of musical instruments to play with and enjoy. The park has plenty of seating areas and also has BBQ grills. There are restrooms available but I can't speak on the conditions since I haven't actually used them. The park is spacious, clean, and is the perfect spot to relax with a snack or have a full blown paaaartay!! 5/5 stars, my family and I love everything about Greenwood!!

Probably one of the nicest parks in Hayward. Problem is its just in an unusual hard to find spot…read morethat is almost hidden - unless you are one of the lucky residents nearby. Flowering trees, walkways, little musical instrument for kids, bay friendly rated landscaping, beautiful flower shaped shade artwork, hammock, swings, play structure, small trampoline, basketball hoops... I could go on and on about all the different amenities. There is something for everybody. One beautifully done park... likely from money from the new nearby construction. Big newer homes are on one side and then trailer park homes are on the other side. Its a public park and no matter what you pay for rent or where you live it is here for you to enjoy. The one problem I saw was the basketball hoops. They were like tiny lakes. For whatever reason the concrete contractors messed up. They made little swimming pool instead of flat concrete that doesn't puddle up. I've bounced a ball in a tiny pool of water... and let me tell you - its one way to end the fun. Great little park for all residents of Hayward. Worth a little drive to get to.

Fairly large park with small walking path and large old trees. Across from Hayward police…read moredepartment. Given its size the park must be sort of old. Created in a time when land in the area was more abundant. Big shade trees also indicate the possible age of this place. Lots of grass and green to look at. Across from Hayward police department. I'm not really sure what they do there - eat donuts? Solve cases? Push around paperwork? Who knows... but in a time when fear is so commonplace - this might be a place you feel safe to let your kids play in Hayward. Lots of lawn - good to let your dog do their business and let your kids roll around - germs are good for kids to prevent allergies, right? Good utilitarian park with all the basics - I suppose it doesn't have that 'it' factor which makes it less popular - but in the era of social distancing that might be even more of a plus.

There is also outdoor exercise environment m. I wish there was more parking and it was a little cleaner at the entrance, but besides that this is a great park.

Another very nice park that I get to run through in San Leandro!!!…read more I like how it has an arch on the entrance to this park from the parking lot, a little something different. I almost always see someone on the basketball courts here, seems like the highlight of this place. There's also a playground, BBQ areas, restrooms, which were very clean, and a ping pong table. A rather small park as well as a rather small parking lot, this park is located close to the Oakland/San Leandro border!!

A nice little park in the Ashland area of San Lorenzo…read more The skate park is the largest area of this park, and it's located right next to East 14th Street. The skaters obviously love this park. There's also a playground and a small parking lot on the side of the park next to the skate park. There are also some restrooms located at the rear of this park. A cool little park in this area!!!

Great little park that is well kept. Skate park has a good variety of features in a small space…read more Not a fan of the regular drinking, smoking, vaping and drugs the parents and a few of the older skaters do there. That's a shame. Otherwise, great park.

Maybe a good place to bum around on a skateboard if your living in the high density housing nearby. Kid brother rented a room close to here for a short while too. Never liked to hang around that place as the roommates - or maybe the owner - had a bunch of video cameras in the front of the house and living room. Who knows where else. I'd scoop him up and leave fast. To me living in a situation like that would be worse than jail. Safe neighborhood - as good as it gets - but I suppose everybody is on edge these days.
