Haven't really been there to enjoy the amenities but as I drive past daily it's great to see the improvement made. When weather is nice and everyone is t the park enjoying each other the weather and our city it's a good thing

This park is always a hit or miss for me. Always super crowded. The kids are rude. The older kids come to hang out and be in the way of the younger kids who actually want to utilize the playground. I’m only giving them 3 stars because they added another small playground and splash pad. They still haven’t fixed any damages to the larger original playground though

The City Park is Reading's "central park" I haven't been there in over twenty years. I stopped by on Thursday March 10 to take some pictures for Google. I saw one dog walker and a family of ducks in the pond over by the bandshell. Obviously the park will be crowded in the coming warmer months. There's really nothing there for me to having me come back to City Park. When I used to volunteer for the Arts Council they would have a summer concert series but I never signed up to volunteer at them.

A quaint little park with lots of statues of colonizers. It's clean. Not a lot to do but walk through. They have an amphitheater. Now they have a hot dog stand there which is cool. I'm new to the area and have yet to see an event there.
