This park is set in a residential neighborhood, and is very unique. The main section has two pull up bars, one is higher than usual and the other is lower than usual or a tall medium bar. There are dip bars are a big square box that is great for many box/bench style exercises/stretches. In the playground, there are several more pull up bars.

This park is unique, as a sign points out it was built by boy scouts. There are two nice pull up bars and various low and medium bars, along with step platforms. It is set in a residential setting but there is no parking or bathrooms. To park, you kind of have to just pull off to the side but I do not know if that is allowed.

This park has pull up bars, medium bars, ladder, benches, and monkey bars. It is lacking dip bars. There is a walking path and has a free, medium sized parking lot. It is right next to a popular playground so kids running around is common.

This park has an excellent high and wide straight bar, perfect for freestyle. It also has monkey bars, dip bars and a bench. The ground is unique as it feels like shredded tires, a little softer than other parks. There is a big local community that trains here.

I wasn't sure where to park, but there were some street parking spots west of the park by the school, and when I got there I noticed a small parking lot north of the park dedicated for this area of the park. I didn't notice any bathrooms and there was a shopping cart left in the middle. The equipment itself was actually quite impressive, it has some unique features such as a different style of rings, and some ninja elements.

This park is massive. Despite a ton of street parking, it can still be hard to find a spot as there are so many things going on at this popular park. The calisthenics section is located next to a bathroom that has never been locked for me, and although not nice/clean, it isn't bad. It seems to be exactly like Washington Park in Union City with low, medium, and high pull up bars, dip bars, step platforms and some low effort machines. One addition here is it has a springy platform.

This park is located in a very busy and popular park with many baseball games and other local sports organizations. Because of this, parking can be very tough if games are going on. I noticed the bathrooms were locked when I visited in April 2026. The park itself is pretty good, it's on turf and has low bars, medium bars, pull up bars, dip bars, and some stepping platforms.

I did not notice a name for this park. It is set in a unique place, it is sandwiched inbetween what appears to be apartment buildings, and the workout area is a part of the playground so expect a lot of kids. Driving to get here was really difficult, there are many steep hills and tough intersections if you drive. The parking wasn't good either, very tight street parking. I noticed on my way out there was better street parking after the park. The park itself is actually pretty great, as you can see by the pictures it has almost everything. One small complaint, the pull up bars are slightly shorter than typical. There is also a small with low effort machines.

This park is located in a residential setting. It is overlooked because it is so close to Milton Votee Park which is better, but this park is also pretty good in my opinion. It has a great high bar for freestyle, a dip bar, and a bench. There is also a walking path that goes around the park and a porter potty that was in good shape when I used it. Plentiful street parking all around the park.

This is a new park that was finished around April/May 2026. There is a nice ledge at one side of the park that provides great views of the Paterson skyline (lol). This park is quite unique because of it's structures that I haven't seen anywhere else. There is a spinning pullup bar that is very difficult to use. There is a piece of equipment they call a pommel horse but I'd like to see someone use it as one. There is also a canopy to provide shade, an excellent touch because some of the other parks around us get clobbered in the sun.
