Huizenga Plaza

"Nice area to take a walk either alone, or with kids/dog. Plenty of seating areas and a nice view of the river along with the boats that park and pass. I love that the trees provide such a nice shade for relaxing or reading. Sometimes, the homeless like to take naps on some of the benches, but there are really plenty of places to sit so it shouldn’t affect your time here. There is a stage where sometimes free yoga, concerts, etc. Take place. Be sure to keep up with the event calendar or on their social media platforms."

"Our family enjoyed the Winterfest Family event. Fun activities for the kids with plenty of prizes and giveaways. I am happy that this event continues to put a smile on children's faces."

"Today this park is having the Annual Day of the Dead celebration 2021. It started at this park at 4 and then we follow the huge skeleton procession that took us to Revolution Live nightclub. The schedule as to the different events time happening are listed online. The celebration was so cool. It had face painting stations. They do a job on the painting, these ladieshave skills. The event had live music and Mexican traditional dances. So many beautiful costumes here. It was very well organized. You can be an expectator or part part of the parade. The procession uses the back streets to get to Revolution. It is so cool to watch this huge puppets move. Some of the costumes very creative. This is a family and pet friendly park and event. The park. A parking garage is near and very convenient."

"We stumbled upon this park after detouring from the Bodega and Society while trying to get to the Water Taxi Stop 1. Instead of crossing the street which anchored up to the bridge, we took a right and walked towards the Riverfront passing Rivertail on our right and crossed under the bridge to see this gem. It seems like a good neighborhood park for the downtown area as during the day people were walking their dogs, seated and talking on their phones or with each other and exercising. When we passed by 3 hours later after coming our excursion on the Water Taxi to have dinner at Rivertail, we noticed a game of kickball and the gorgeous fountain lit behind the game. It was very peaceful both times. I hope you find this review helpful. If so, please give me a thumbs up. Thank you."

"Attended the vegan pop up event and although I'm not vegan it was fun for all. Tons of people, kids and dogs and my friends loved the food choices. I'm thinking they weren't expecting the turnout they got so perhaps next time there will be more food vendors attending making the wait for orders a bit shorter. All in all a beautiful day."
