    This was an inferior park a few years ago. Then the city passed a tax hike to redo and improve the…read morelocal parks. Some parks they did incredible improvements. This wasn't one of them. They took a bad park and made it horrible. The park used to: Flood Have bad mosquitos 2 playgrounds Lots of run down equipment A walking path. They removed the playgrounds and replaced it with half of a new one that I could have built with 4 2x8s and some PVC pipe and plastic. They added a bathroom/dog wash that's been closed every time I've been there. A fence that splits the park in half and destroys the walking path. So now you have HALF a park that: Floods Has bad mosquitos Lost the walking path Lost the playgrounds Still has run down equipment. This city is horrible. This park is horrible. They should be ashamed.

    The park is nice because it's close to our neighborhood but unfortunately that's one of the few…read morepositives. It has a paved walking path around the perimeter and some playground equipment that is in dire need of TLC. They had an accessible friendly playscape but removed it at the end of last summer and are building a restroom pavilion. Avoid the park at all costs after a rainstorm during the spring / summer due to the mosquitos because they will literally carry you out of their park. We've also had a few run ins with dogs off leash which is frustrating. This park is slated for upgrades in the coming years.

    Our department had a team picnic today. One of our team members lives in AP and was able to a…read morereasonable down payment for the bathroom keys. They had tennis courts for pickle ball and a good open field for volleyball, corn hole and fowling. There were about 6 rows of about 4 side by side picnic tables under the shelter. We needed the shelter while eating since it down poured some today. There is a small parking by the tennis court and school, another on the other side of the playscape and a bigger one by the school, but it was under construction.

    This park has just about everything and is huge. It has a large parking lot, tennis courts,…read morebaseball/softball fields, 2 playgrounds, some covered pavilions, and in inline hockey rink. There is also a paved walking/jogging trail. The covered pavilions have picnic tables under it, but I do not think there are any grills. You will have to bring your own. The park appears kind of old and is relatively maintained. It could use some lawn care. The two play grounds are on opposite ends of the park from each other, along with the pavilions. One play ground has older equipment. The other new playground (by the high school) is bigger and has more modern equipment. It has a huge jungle gym with slides, bridges, and poles. There is also a set of modern swings, a set of regular swings, and a dome climber over there as well. The older playground has a very small metal slide (ouchhhh, on those hot summer days), and two sets of worn swings that have seen better days. As an added bonus, the park has a couple of restroom facility and paved paths that could be used for walking. They are not very long so you would probably get bored running up and down them. The baseball/softball fields are world class and have lights. I think they are used for Allen Park rec league ball mostly, but can be rented. The same goes for the inline-skate rink. The park is located in the backyard of Allen Park High School and I found it hard to differentiate what facilities belonged to the park and which belonged to the school. This is a nice park and definitely worth a visit or planning a special event at. Whether it be a baseball tournament, tennis match, picnic, party, or walking your dog. It has tons of stuff to do.

    This is a beautiful, but small park. It has a covered pavilion with picnic tables and outdoor games…read moresuch as corn hole, foosball, and checkers. I think you do need to bring your pieces though. You will also find a lending library, which is decorated with cardinals there too. I did not see a parking lot, but there is some free street parking available. The park is well maintained and has benches placed along the park and a memorial flag honoring veterans of World War I, World War II, the Korean War, Vietnam War, and Persian Gulf War. The park hosts a farmer's market on Wednesday's from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. when in season. Even though this park is very small and does not have any restrooms, or trails, I like it. It is very clean and well maintained. It also offers a good place to relax and reflect or play some classic games outdoors.

    Cardinal Park is a beautiful, small park located at an intersection. It is a relief to see the…read morepark there and the gazebo along with it. The area it is in benefits from it as it a welcome draught of beauty and well designed space in an urban environment. The gazebo is very nice and appreciated as a place to sit during inclement weather and to enjoy in the summertime. The benches scattered through the park invite rest no matter which direction you are traversing the park. There is no play area here and it is on a busy intersection so this is not a play park. The Melvindale Veterans Memorial is also located here. During the summertime and into the fall Melvindale hosts their Farmers' Market here. It is in a good location as it is between a commercial area with stores and restaurants and a very set of neighborhoods. The park is also graced with a lending library where people can take a book and leave a book. The lending library box is tastefully decorated with cardinals and trailing vines.
