Cresent Park

I absolutely cannot get enough of crescent park. It’s by far one of my favorite new spots on the river now.
It’s pretty big, and I feel like not a lot of people know about it yet so it’s not overly crowded. They have water fountains and bathrooms which is really nice. Swings, a very nice garden to walk through, and a huge field of grass for the kids to run around in.
Parking near by is free, and they have a great view of the city and the Mississippi River. Perfect spot to clear your head or pack a picnic lunch and bring the family. The park is dog friendly also and great for runners.
