Nice park. Has 2 basketball courts and nice playground equipment at outdoor park.

★★★Sue K

Space is good but guy is creepy at desk. I went to kill 30 minutes while waiting for someone. They talked about how homeless people make themselves ar home etc while looking in my direction. Made me quite uncomfortable with what was said amd how. At that time he was also flirting and messing with the much younger female employee. Rather inappropriate.
