Fun fact: This park was named after a pioneer family who settled here back in the late 1800s that was active in the community.
Although the benches and playground equipment are in need of some repair this is a nice little park. It usually isn't too busy and the playground has a shaded cover for the summer with sand substrate. There are a lot of swings, grassy areas with benches, and a basketball court. There is one dog baggie station and a water fountain that has water for humans and dogs. Keep in mind there are no public restrooms here so plan accordingly if you have kiddos.
The good news is there are scheduled improvements to be made to the park but they are waiting to get all the materials constructed and delivered before starting on renovations. According to the Tempe.gov website:
"Enhancements to Redden Park will include a complete renovation of the playground, accessible walkways into and through the park, a new picnic ramada, new lighting in the playground area, and additional trees."
