My personal favorite, however, is the paved walking path circling the park; it's perfect for both brisk exercise and leisurely strolls. With a playground for the little ones as well, it's a wonderful spot to spend a few hours with the whole family.

Pirate City Sports Nutrition Center…read more This was my go to eatery for years. The food and service is second to none. The nutritionists offer various meal options based on you training needs. I would eat there twice a day, every day of the week. When the sandwich station was open, oh my! These people put Subway to shame. About two three times a month they would have opulent meals for lunch. Carved roast beef, crab legs, all kind of other delectables. I don't get the chance to eat there anymore but if you are the area, there are no better meal options. BTW, you have be a player or employee of the Pittsburgh Pirates to eat here.

I live .5 miles from this park, and I drive by it several times a day. My husband and I joke that,…read morerain or shine, there is always someone in the park. At least one person. This park has lots of activities to choose from which makes it so lively. They have pickle ball courts, a small workout area (pull up bars), a big kid and little kid playground, softball diamonds, soccer fields, and a full basketball court. On a given day you can see kids playing on the equipment, a baseball game, and kids hooping. This park also hosts softball and kickball leagues in certain parts of the year. Overall it's pretty safe. I walk through it at lunch every day, and there's always someone enjoying their lunch outside. There's usually a good number of cars in the parking lot during lunch since the lot provides plenty of shade. It's a great place to find some privacy and catch some sun rays or enjoy some jams in your car under the shade.

Okay first thing I want to say about this stadium is make sure you bring a hat, a fan and drink…read morelots of water before you go to any game year. While the stadium is decent size. There is very limited covering for shade. I love that they have various types of concessions around the ballpark. And you can buy souvenirs for their home team. Right near the entrance/ exit. Stadium itself is in good shape. Entertainment during the changing of the innings for fun and engaging. I came here for one of the spring training games and definitely will be back. Parking is interesting as the stadium is in the middle of a neighborhood. So plan accordingly before you go. There is a mix of paid parking and street parking around the area but with the size of the stadium that parking can get filled rather quickly. Note e if you stand right outside of the stadium, there's a likelihood that you could catch a foul ball right on the street. I witnessed that firsthand as I was leaving the stadium and one of the vendors straight up caught a a fly ball coming over the stadium wall with his bare hands. It was quite a sight to see. I feel bad for any cars driving by during that time though.

This recreation center has been the only place where kids could come and have a playground or any sort of organized activities. They have the only remaining Tiny Tot program for 3/4 kids since Apollo Beach discontinued it some years ago. The playground has been expanded and combined to a single mulched area now fenced to keep out the stray dogs of the past and the modern new indoor gym for basketball leagues also. Many programs offered range from preschool to senior level. They offer basketball leagues for seniors, teens, youth, and yoga available as well as weight room and after school camps.

BLUF: Character, cleanliness, happy people and good concessions makes this stadium a great place…read morefor Grapefruit League spring training baseball. To date I have been to five of the Grapefruit League stadiums and Ed Smith is absolutely my favorite. Sure, I am an O's fan and biased but even so, it's a great stadium. I love the character of the Spanish-Colonial architecture, the breezy concourse, abundant trees, big bathrooms, overall cleanliness and throw backs to Camden Yards. Camden green is abound and I like that this feels like the Orioles spring training home and not just some generic stadium. Also, people here are just happy and friendly. Both the concessions and team store are great. The team store is large and has lots of O's gear. I wish that they had more Spring Training-specific stuff. Back in the day I got some nice gear that was thoughtfully designed to incorporate elements of Florida, the Grapefruit League and the Orioles. On my most recent visit most of the gear I found was classic Orioles gear with the words "Spring Training" added to it. Snooze. There are various concession lines throughout the stadium so lines are never too long. On my recent visit I stuck to classic baseball game fare like hot dogs, soft pretzels and beer. Most concessions have the same stuff but there is one that offers healthy options and one place that is dedicated to craft beer. Also, if you're into chicken, there is a Chick-fil-A onsite. There are a few official lots for the stadium that offer parking around $20 although we paid a local business to pay in their lot for $20 which was equally as convenient. The surrounding streets close before the game and the area can get a little trafficky so if you want to be there for first pitch be sure to give yourself to find parking and your seat.
