Fun public space and even antique couches out tonight. Halloween 🎃 celebration and a movie. I stopped by briefly but now am at coffee shop across street. Love having Broadway Square as such a positive space. Good vibes downtown Fargo.

Nice place. Ample parking, and 2 fenced in areas - one for small dogs (under 17") and one for large dogs. Both have some obstacles for the dogs as well. Both have gated entry enclosures. Multiple locations for poop bags dispensing, and disposal. Nice gazebo and park area on the outside as well as a pond. Nice place - just watch your step as not everyone is as conscious about cleaning up after their pet. Portapotty on site for humans.

I went to this sports complex last weekend with a couple friends and it turned out to be a pretty decent place to spend the afternoon. The basketball courts were in good shape and there was plenty of space so it didn’t feel too crowded. Staff at the front desk were polite and helped us figure out where everything was. Locker rooms looked clean enough, though a little busy at times. Parking was easy which I appreciated. Nothing over the top fancy, but it works well if you just want a place to play and hang out for a few hours. I would probably come back again sometime.

I had my daughters first birthday party here, wasn’t happy. I saw great reviews with the park and shelters being kept up and nice. Upon arrival it was awful, we had to clean the counters and tables, I get it, it’s outside. But all the garbages were full, cigarette butts were everywhere and it simply looked like no one cares for the place. Don’t recommend for a child’s party.
