    This is such a beautiful park that has something for everyone! There is expertise equipment for those 13+ , at open obstacle course for elementary to middle age kids and smaller playground with similar items for kids 2-5 years old. The river is right there providing beautiful scenery. There is a walking path and "healing Gardens" through the marsh. There were so many families and individuals out today enjoying the fresh air and amenities. Parking was a bit of a hassle due to the new condos that are going up nearby and how many people were there so prepare to have to circle the parking a few times.

    I've visited RiversEdge Park several times since its opening and I must say, it's very nice. There is ample parking, lots of walking/running room, a zen garden of sorts, a boardwalk, and a beautiful playground for the little ones. All of this is nestled beautifully on the Southbank, with the river and the new stadium development in the backdrop. I can definitely see this being a very popular hangout for years to come. This park is a jewel in Jacksonville. Absolutely a must go.

    New discovery for us and a great extension to the Southbank Riverwalk. We are always looking for dog friendly places to walk our dogs and this was a great find. We loved all the options for exploring, including the secluded boardwalk near the new townhomes. Great views even on this chilly and cloudy day.

    This park is great, it offers a bit of something for everyone. Great views and play areas for all ages. It may be a little hot during the summer as there is very little shade.

    Nice little playground for the kids as a break from stores. They have chairs, benches and some…read moreshade. Great idea for a shopping center. Wish they had a lemonade stand though... that would make it perfect and I think they would sell a lot!

    The St. John's Town Center is such a huge boon for the city. It boasts a mixture of standard mall…read moreshops, various eateries, and a sprinkle of high end retail establishments that keeps young and old adults of the city coming back for more. But while we were busy cruising up and down town center boulevard, we found that our kids would be tremendously bored. Up until late last year the only form of entertainment we could provide them during a long day of shopping at the town center was the mall choo-choo train that costs us almost an Andrew Jackson for a 3 minute simulation of weaving between traffic for our 2 kids. Sure we could bring them to the beautiful pond at the center of the mall in front of the Italian restaurant, but with the lack of railings if we don't keep a close eye on them, they could literally be swimming with the fishes (or turtles or ducks)! Thank goodness for the Wolfson's Play Shore for providing our kids a break from all the commercialism. The name itself is reminiscent of the wonderful beaches that attract people to Jacksonville and the colorful sea life play structures continue with this aquatic theme. In regards to safety they've got you covered from top to bottom. The area is shaded and the flooring is made up of that finely ground tire rubber that makes you feel like you're wearing moon shoes. There is ample seating all around the area along with anti bacterial soap dispensers. Once the kids are all pooped out, it's back to the endless grind of spending our hard earned money. I'm glad a play area is finally here. If a free pitstop to unload your kids energy isn't your cup of tea, there's always the choo-choo.
