Washington Park

I absolutely love this park. I live nearby within walking distance and I love to take my dog here. They have an area where a lot of people walk their dogs around and they usually have it stocked with some little baggies to clean up after your dog. I also enjoy looking at the various statues as well as the fountain and surrounding flowers. The Boathouse is great. I recently saw that they had a production of the music man at the amphitheater there. Great place to have a quick stop for an outdoor lunch or to enjoy the park for a couple hours with friends or family. Also a nice place for quiet meditation if you just want to go for a walk. The pond is great and on the far end they are doing a little bit of construction but it is still enjoyable.

Love the festivities there. The Latin fest, the Tulip fest among others. A nice quiet park to relax in or take walks, or just sit and read a book. I think they have plays at the theatre outside, at least they used to. They may still do.

Beautiful park adjacent to downtown Albany in Center Square area. Pretty fountain surrounded by flowers and a nice small lake. Plays and other events frequently held outside the lake boat house where there is a stage and stadium style seating.

Enjoyable to walk around. Or just relax on a bench. Very open, some beautiful scenery for being in the heart of Albany.

It's a wonderful place to be in Albany N.Y.. The gardens are so relaxing. It's fun to watch the animals and dogs play in the park. It's a great place for people watching. The plays at the park playhouse at the lake house are always amazing for free theatre in the park.
