Great part of the upper east side of the Bronx NY. Easily accessible via exit 11 off New England Thruway I95. The is a public swimming pool, basketball and soccer field, children's playground with slides, swings etc. There's also a performance stage and lots of open areas for picnicing and gatherings. Occasionally, there are food and beverage vendors in and around this park area. Like the day we were happy to suppor Black businessman Dru and son Jermaine and their homemade Lemonade Stand on the corner of Ely Ave and Arnow Avenue.
Pool, open BBQ areas, clean bathrooms and always a park ranger on duty. Basketball area has plenty of space and benches. Handball court is wide for great games. Great space for events. Definitely a top 10 community park for me
Extremely clean park with running sprinklers for the kids and a swimming pool. Great park for family fun. NYC Parks Dept was out giving trash bags and being helpful. Thumbs up for them!! Happy Fathers Day to all Fathers!!!
The park was great. The kids love it. Especially the water fountain.
The Park is need of dire upgrades from the tennis courts, basketball courts, soccer fields and the picnic areas also it needs a garden with beautiful exotic flowers to enhance the scenery
Why is the pool closed? Travel all the way here for nothing… even though it says it’s open on the websites …the pool is drained
I can’t wait to have my cookout at this park! I stopped by because I was in the area and my dog needed a potty break. This park has everything a full park has but in a two block radius. Pools, including a kiddie one, renovated basketball courts with bleacher style seating, mini soccer field, tennis courts, playgrounds, a mini outdoor stage area. They have an abundance of picnic tables situated in areas with plenty of shade no matter the time of day. The picnic areas have designated trash cans for charcoal. The playgrounds have sprinklers and old fashioned swings. With that being said I have four stars because there are some areas for improvements but I guess there’s no rush because it doesn’t serve a huge population. It really is a hidden gem.
Jaffen Park is a hidden oasis, very clean, peaceful and the people who go and work here are very polite. I'm going to buy a house in the area.
This is one of the places that makes me happy to live in Riverdale. Nestled between the Hudson River and the furthest western street in the Bronx is this beautiful park. It is quiet with many trees and squirrels to keep you company. I sat on log the
I enjoyed Pelham Bay Park. I went on the trails on Hunter Island and visited Glovers Rock. The trails were interesting and scenic. The park was quiet and peaceful during this time of year.
I travel from Inwood to Paulâs Park because of the basketball courts and the good times Iâve spent there. The people over there are super dope. Playground is legit right next to the courts with a baseball diamond nearby as well.
Seton Park is scenic, gorgeous and peaceful; in fact, old Pete, the Jewish Bruin lives on the closest bench to west 235th Street therein! He says it's even warmer at 3am on a January morning in the park than at 11am on any weekday inside the nearby.
Really cute little park with a playground, and sprinklers. I happened to stumble upon it while waiting forever for the bus. Also there is a baseball field and a few pieces of workout equipment. There's a really nice view of the water as well.
I am like Alice in a wonderland at this park. It's very well maintained and I just wanna click my red heels like Dorothy and say "no place like home" :)
Had a marvelous time so did my emotional support puppy he loved playing and running in the grass on his own journey and next to the park was a food market where I also did some shopping my aid, myself and my baby what a beautiful day! â¨ð
