This park has been a favorite of my kids since they were toddlers. It's completely fenced in and…read morethats great because the Conduit runs along side it and the traffic is pretty heavy. A bit noisy and since its neighboring JFK airport there's the added airplane noises. Kids don't seem to mind or care for that matter. During hot months it's a heat buster heaven with the giant frog sprinklers blasting. Most areas are shaded by trees and wind is always blowing here. Lots of benches around and some tables with chairs. Basketball court and handball courts are at one end. Major downside here however is that there's no bathroom. The location serves as more like a backyard playground to many of the homes that are across the street . Still not a good excuse to not have a bathroom. There's no direct parking spots right outside the park either. Its the kind of location that you would probably drive by and then wonder how to get into the park but by that time you've already passed it. So the tip is to drive down Lefferts Blvd a block or 2 and find parking on one of the side streets to the left or right . Then walk back to the park. (Be careful crossing- it's the Conduit after all,but there is a crosswalk) If you're ever flight delayed this is a good park to come with little ones to kill time and burn off some energy. Its a quick walk over from the Long Term Parking area at JFK. You'll see lots of airline workers who live close by walking to work.

The park has a nice shaded area and a decent amount of threes that makes for some real nice scenery. This park is good for after school, or just chilling out on the benches enjoying some music. I go through this park on a regular basis it is about less than a block away from the jfk airport .and the jfk airtrain is right there also .and if you are interested in long term parking it is also there. I will definitely go back there in the future

Soon as you enter the main gate there are benches and grass area to sit. Walking pathways are kind of narrow and shared with kids riding their bikes and scooters. A small baseball field in the center of this park makes for great outdoor activities for anyone. The four playgrounds are the best kept secret of this park. There are lots of slides for kiddies to older children and all play areas are newly constructed, colorful, and sturdy. Kids will have fun running up and down all of the areas. It is a predominantly Othrodox neighborhood, everyone minded their own business and continued playing. Park is kept clean and very well maintained. One of the nicest parks in Brooklyn.

This is specifically a review of the playground. I have not seen the rest of the park…read more A unique playground feel with very large rocks built into the play apparatus. Brave little kids can rock climb up to the slide and little babies and kids alike can crawl and run under the rock arch. There are some nice trees around, making leaf gathering a fun task for little ones. Includes slides of varying levels and lots of challenging things to climb on and jump to. If you live in the area or going to be in the area and want a playground your kids will really delight in, give it a visit. If you are faint of heart and can't imagine your kids walking across a rock (maybe 8 feet up) - skip this one

Often, this playground is empty which can be great for parents who are a bit anxious with having too many children around. Mostly clean with the exception of a homeless person or 2 who uses the bathroom to bathe themselves (saw it myself 1st hand). Parking is bad though and with the high flow of traffic, it can be of concern if you park further down and need to cross the street. In any case this is a nice gem which also has rubber floors on the playground itself. Def great place to bring your kids. It does lack swings sadly.

Over the last 25 years, it has been improved upon immensely, becoming the focal point of Cedarhurst. Lots of things for kids of all ages to participate in. 1. The bathrooms are new, handicapped accessible and clean (see comments below*) 2. Handicapped accessible things for young children to participate in. 3. Nice amount of seating for all. 4. Parking is metered, but generally available. 5. Open spaces HOWEVER, I HAVE SOME GRIPES: 1. DOGS. NO dogs in the park! Why do locals have to walk their dogs in the park, even if they are leashed? It's disgusting! 2. PIGS. Parents and housekeepers are pigs. They drop stuff all over the floor or the kids do - and the responsible parties do not clean up after themselves or their charges. Lots of refuse cans available - USE THEM! Don't teach these little ones such bad manners! 3. HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS - from a local school, use the field for their gym class during the day. They play soccer or tag football. Nice to see them enjoying themselves, but it is a public park and their school property isn't. That's my short list. If the gripes were taken care of, this review would be 5 STARS.

I came here once with a person I thought was going to turn into a friend, and then I took my husband here when we first started seeing each other.

This park is a lovely and large chunk of land, it provides a nice mini escape from the ordinary and mundane. Worth the visit if you are in this area.

As an outdoor fitness enthusiast, I just could not resist stopping in to take in the vibes of this park, plus take pictures. At the time there were several activities going on, yet the park had such a tranquil vibe. Cadman Plaza Park has a memorial known as the Brooklyn War Memorial that I just could not take my eyes off while browsing the area. I later found per Cadman Park Conservancy; the memorial is dedicated to the more than 300,000 heroic men and women of the borough of Brooklyn who served in World War II. Inside are displayed approximately 11,500 names of Brooklyn service members who died during the war. And the two massive exterior high relief figures that depict a male warrior on the left and a female with child to the right, symbols of victory and family. Its inscription reads: This memorial dedicated to the heroic men and women of the borough of Brooklyn who fought for liberty in the second World War 1941-1945 and especially to those who suffered and died may their sacrifice inspire future generations and lead to universal peace. During my time in Brooklyn, New York, I was grateful to encounter Cadman Plaza Park, and further pleased to discover the meaning of its memorial as a military veteran myself. ~Have courage.
