The downtown park of Wichita, at Douglas and St Francis. The recently remodeled and newly named park has a large center of attractive but fake grass, surrounded by loads of bench areas for eating and gathering, along with a stage for performers. A sharp view of surrounding downtown architecture is a highlight to the park and it has plenty of shops and dining stops available in walking distance. There is a small, gated dog area but it is a total waste since it’s mostly concrete and uncared for. Accessibility to this park can be a challenge for new visitors due to locating parking in the busy area and searching for a spot can be frustrating when events and food truck gatherings are being held. Overall, it’s an improvement from the old park and is worth a visit from anyone checking out the area.

Such an AMAZING concert by "Colby James Genuine Concert" by Colby James Barradas)!! I loved this venue with the super contemporary stage and amazingly lush grass that is perfectly manicured! Fun to go barefoot or lay on a blanket at these events. The weather cooled off nicely by 7 or 8 p.m. and had a cool breeze to carry us through Colby James' "Genuine Concert", an annual event! ☆☆ LOOK FOR HIM NEXT YEAR!☆☆ (Colby James Barradas)
