It’s not a perfectly maintained park but it serves the neighborhood. It has a dog water station, a port a pottie, a free mulch pile, and a little free library. It doesn’t get the amount of visitors that Mifflin Square gets, but perhaps that’s why I prefer this park. You can also use the bathrooms at Sacks playground next door.

I thought this park would be noisy because of Washington Avenue but if you sit on the opposite end it is very pleasant. I love the huge old trees, there are lots of dogs coming through on leash, and it's not a super crowded park. It's definitely a neighborhood park, not full of tourists. I'll be visiting more often especially since it's only a few blocks from Herman's Coffee.

Small and not well maintained. The benches are located where there’s not much shade. This park is mainly useful for pets to do their necessities.

Jefferson Square is a lovely green space to relax, let the kids play, or just enjoy some sunshine. It’s well-maintained and never too crowded. A real neighborhood gem for outdoor time.
