This park was once known as Palmer Park, until a year or so ago. This park is a get away spot for me when I want to be alone, or just to think, or even to bring my kid to play on the playground.
Playground
There is definitely a suitable size playground for the kids to play on.
Restrooms
There are no restrooms available anymore at this park, that's the only issue I have.
Dog-friendliness
People from the surrounding neighborhoods always come to walk and play with their dogs here.
Picnic area
There are no actual picnic tables or grills pre set for use here, but there is definitely enough grassy area for picnicking in the front and back or on either side, depending on how you look at it.

Nice well maintained park with extraordinary public transportation access although at times parking can be challenging depending on day and time. Very peaceful during the morning and afternoon on weekdays. They have a arts and craft fair hosted in the park on a regular basis that is alot of fun with fantastic local artists showing their work. If you do get to one of the parks at festivals make sure to bring some money because I can almost guarantee that you're going to find something you will love. Overall great experiences here and the only downside has nothing to do with the park itself but traffic and parking if your not on a streetcar.

Attended the monthly open air Arts Market event on Saturday. I enjoyed the live music series, the food vendors as well as the native talent. A great place to source eclectic items for gift giving. Friends of the Library had discounted books for purchase there ranging as low as 50 cents. Make sure to bring your shopping bags to free up your hands, a wide brim hat for sun protection and shades. There are a few sitting areas depending on the time of arrival. The swings need to be fixed. Only one working swings. Hard to see kids waiting for 15 minutes to use the swing. Also the red spinning seat needs WD-40, it barely spins.

It is a great park to go throw frisbee, take the kids ect... It has pleanty of open space to run around with your dog or kids also a great place to fly drones. The only negative bis the homeless people and they don't have many and the few that live there stay over by the bus stop. Plus I have never seen them do anything to offend or affect others but there presence does make some mother's Whit children uneasy but I fell they are just people going through a rough spot and are harmless.

Right at the end of the streetcar line on Carrollton Avenue Palmer Park. They have a classic Archway and a war memorial in the middle but the real attraction is the very clean playground. There are lots of young children in the neighborhood and it's a great place to bring kids or to sit on the bench and relax. There's often art markets and food festivals in the park. And it's close to a supermarket in Walgreens if you want to have a picnic.

Lovely little park in Carrollton. There is a playground for young children. There are also several shaded benches along the walkway. I really appreciate this park for its simplicity and convenience (located right off of the last stop of the St Charles streetcar and accessible by multiple busses). It's a great place to get away from the business of the city and relax. There are often different events such as arts and crafts fairs.

A clean, safe park for just relaxing maybe yoga, if your into that. At times throughout the month, their is arts market in the park which bring more activities to the park. If you like fast food Burger King is across the street and Walgreens as well, if you just want some snacks for a picnic with your lady or your crew. Small park with few amenities but more accessible to do as you please.

This park used to be my favorite spot to sit down and have lunch or take a shaded walk but now it's in disarray and in need of some serious tlc. The city should still keep up properties like public areas during the pandemic. Even if you don't want people playing with their kids and congregating it still needs proper maintenance. I hope someone of some importance sees this.

During winter there are always bums hanging out at this park, I guess they don't get hassled as often. In summer there are fewer homeless people, but more hoodlums. I can walk my dog here, but there are lots of idiots that don't keep their own dogs leashed. I wouldn't recommend it for small children but kids 6 and up should be fine. The equipment is in good shape.

It's a cute small park with some covered areas. It's entertaining for smaller kids but probably not the older ones as far as things to with playground equipment. They would probably be more entertained if they had a ball to play with or other things to do other than play on the slides or swings. There is a lot of grassy area for running around so that's a plus.

Palmer Park has come a long way from many years ago. It still has plenty of space to be a greater park for kids. The ground and landscaping is not well kept. The location is perfect if you are utilizing public transportation. Parking is more residential. Many individuals with their dogs come here.

The scenery is nice. The close proximity to the street car stop and intersection of Claiborne & Carrollton is perfect if you're a pedestrian that uses public transportation. Although some of the equipment is degrading and starting to become unstable. Overall it's a nice park just be careful.

Pretty lovely little park. Might need some policing at night time... & a weekly power-wash... smelled of urine in some spots, unfortunately. But the concept and amenities are great - so long as folks will respect the place. Neighborhood patrol watch might come in handy, just a thought.

Small open park area. On Saturday, they had an arts and crafts exhibit with a lot of local artists. Did not see a playground or such, just open space. Trees, grass, some benches, that's pretty much it. Just hop the St. Charles line to the end of the line and there you are.

I brought a group of preschoolers their to play and we had a ball. We loved the shade above the climbing equipment which kept the sun out, but the humility kicked our butts. Make sure you bring some bottles of water. There are no water outlet nor a place for potty break.

Better for older kids than younger ones. The shade for the play structure is great, but I wish some of the parent benches had shade too. Sometimes the grass around the playground gets ridiculously overgrown, to the point that my toddlers are practically swallowed by it.

We stopped to eat our frost top burgers. There was trash just sitting out (near the play area) so we moved inward to the middle. Just dirty. Ants and flies really bad. Couldn't hardly eat, flies trying to attack my food. And ants on my feet. Yuck. I don't recommend it.

This is one of the best parks in the area, the only thing I would like the city to do to make it a little better is maybe pressure wash it every few years. The equipment is still in great shape but you can start to see signs of wear and tear on the plastic pieces.

Its a prettt park, lots of shade, 2 busess and the streetcar meet at the corner, each hit a different part of the edge of the French Quarter, on the Canal street side. Small kids playground, and across the street from a Walgreens and a Chase bank.

Been going their all 16 years of my life can say it's fun to go with friends and hangout and Walgreens and burger king are right their if you get hungry or thirsty and then take the street car and then you'll see a chain of places you can go to

The monthly art market is fun to shop at for gifts for loved ones, yourself and useful decorative items for your house. Market tents are set up along paved paths under shade trees. It's a very pleasant park in a lovely neighborhood.

Love bringing my granddaughter to the park. The only thing about the park is that there's only one swing. This needs to be addressed. Called and reported it and there's still one swing which has been broken for a long time.

Nice little park on Carrollton and Claiborne. Would avoid at night lots of homeless sleep there. During day great place to bring kids. The is a art market that is around once a month I think usually some really nice stuff.

Its use to be fun there was once sand boxes and more stuff to play on when I was a kid now there is just like 1 area to play for the kids what happened to the merry go round but the care about the kids I don't think so

It's okay. A nice little park with a nice playground. Nothing special, though. Except for the fact that the playground is always shaded by a big canopy. I just wish the benches where parents sit were also shaded.

Lots of benches to seat on. Trees were abundant and a variety that ranges from palm trees. Also a nice playground for children and parents to play. Great place to eat lunch and watch the children play.

A beautiful little park right at the end of the St. Charles trolley line. It's worth a stroll if you have a few extra minutes, just to breathe and get a break from the constant buzz of downtown NOLA.

Love this community jewel. I have brought my children, grandchildren, and now my great-grandchildren to this park. We love bike riding, skating, and picnicking here. My Babies love the play set.

Nice park to go for a walk or jog. Multiple sidewalk paths let you pick your route. Nice playground with shade (depending on time of day different parts of the playground are shaded). Art market

Nice park and great art market , last Saturday of each month Fabulous for holiday shopping. Will be open Saturday . Saturday and Sundays open before the holiday; believe 16th and 17th this year.

Went specifically for their art event that runs every month. Although Jazz Fest weekend, there was many artists ranging from photography to jewelry plus many odds and ends antiques! Great time!

Normally the park is clean& grass cut.My last 2 VISITS THIS MONTH THE GRASS IS AT MY KNEES!BUT MY 6YR OLD WANTED TO COME. ITS A SHAME THE CITY ISNT KEEPING UP THE GRASS CONSISTENTLY! …

I stopped here with my toddler who had become antsy riding in the car. As we strolled, we noticed cracks in the sidewalk that had been decorated with mosaic tile designs. Very cute!

Like the place. I saw the Great American Eclipse here. Nice playground for the kids, but the grass can get overgrown at some times and is infested with bugs. Overall nice place

The Palmer Park Art market is always so nice. So many vendors. A great variety. Parking is a little rough just make sure you park legally. It's a great way to spend a Saturday

Attended the monthly art market at Palmer Park, which usually happens on the last Saturday of the month. There are probably 24 - 36 artists with a nice variety of work.

accommodating., open park. Port-o-potties was definitely not good. Street cars stop right next to it. There was a street fair going on with great vendors. Lovely day!

Great little park. Decent playground with swings in a good neighborhood. Usually there are other kids at the playground so my kids usually have someone to play with.

I like going to the park the last Saturday of the month to browse the local vendor offerings and grab a quick bite to each from food stalls while enjoying the park.

Nice play structure with some shade. Lots of puddles to navigate on rainy days. Not much infrastructure like water fountains or trash cans or restroom facilities.

A great place to enjoy a beautiful day finding some leads for a job, getting that homework complete, and always dancing in the rain alone or with that other half.

The park is very peaceful. There are plenty of areas with shade to just chill and relax. Right at the end of the streetcar route. Near Burger King and Walgreens

Great AA meeting every Thursday night near the flag pole. Not official AA but during Covid-19 it was the only face to face meeting in town . Breat's meeting

Beautiful art work for sale.But way over priced. These are gallery artists.Nice folks.Winter has about 1/3 of vendors as usual. I will return in April.

Attended monthly art fair at the end on St Charles trolly line. Wow, what a great experience as all the artist loved discussing their often great work.

Went here for the Saturday market that is held at the end of the month and nothing, no sign or message indicating it was canceled. The park is so small

Big green, lush park at Carrolton and Claiborne. Has a playground. Sidewalk around and through. Good place to walk, throw a ball, sit and ponder.

Wonderful play place for the kiddos! Right off of Clairborne Avenue and Carrollton Avenue in Uptown. Just hop on the streetcar and you're there!

The park is a nice place to sit and enjoy the weather. There is a play area for children. I can't really say much - it's just a little park....

It's a really good park in a really great neighborhood with a really good kid park and it is a host for a annual end of the month flea-festival

Bought some crawfish from Roberts across the street and had a nice picnic while enjoying the sounds of streetcars and laughter in the Park a

The artist that displays there have wonderful items for sale. The park is big enough to enjoy relaxing and unwinding from the daily grind.

We attended the Arts Market (usually the last Sat of every month) and had a lot of fun. The kids played on the playground while I shopped.

my chair jblflip3 speaker gumbo from the real pie man ,rootbeer soda & me myself & God
Dog-friendliness
lots of trees and grass

Nice, I live close and often go and sit and relax. Beware of the homeless situation but they are very nice. Bit messy now due to Ida

Nice, large open space right at the end of the St Charles / Carrollton Street Car line. Beautiful homes surround most of the park.

It's got a porta potty. That's a plus for any small park. Seems like a good place to kick out a live Jazz session, hence the name.

Great little park. They have the NO art market last Saturday if the month. Covered play spot with slides swings and jungle gym.

Beautiful park, playground, green spaces and benches. A little bit of a homeless contingent sets up camp sometimes but nice!

Nice little park toward the end of uptown, if you don't mind conversing with those less fortunate who rest on the benches.

Wonderful atmosphere with occasional festivals and art markets! Hands down one of the best shaded playgrounds in the city

A great outdoor park to relax- walk- jog, or just walking your dog- nice park connecting 4 bus route, and the street car

It's a nice park. I like that it has a shaded canopy over the playground, I just wish it was better maintained/cleaner

Just beautiful! Right in the middle of everything. Definitely worth the long (but hardly boring) streetcar ride.

Art faire the last Sat of every month. Local artists in all mediums, clay, paint, metal. Something for everyone.

I like to go when the art vendors all set up their stands. I don't typically go otherwise but it's a cute park.

Beautiful park for daytime family activities. I would be very careful at night because of the neighborhood.

Nice small playground. Lovely Saturday art market. The city should be keen to cut the grass more often.

Palmer Park is always a nice place to go. I was there for the Krewe of Oak event, which is always fun!

Gorgeous park, check out the art fair here on the last Saturday of every month! lots of great stuff.

Beautiful calm place to relax at. They have events all the time. And walking area for excersize.

Palmer Park was so peaceful, even though it was a blistering 100 degrees, it was breezy... nice.

Beautiful Park in a great neighborhood, however does have a bit of a homeless problem at times.

Is a wonderful park to walk around or just sit and enjoy a breeze. And a day of craft selling.

Great place to enjoy dog walking and relaxing meditation. Kids play ground families gathering.

It is a very good park for children. It is not too large but it is convenient and comfortable.

Been stopping at this park for years. Great place to take a break from the already Big Easy!!

Nice little park. Playground for kids. Not much else here unless you are coming for an event.

Great space! Lots of ground to enjoy- shaded or unshaded; plenty of benches and garbage cans!

Has art markets occasionally, and a children's playground. Sits right on the streetcar line.

I played quidditch here. Watch tthe street parking, roads are awful and easy to get stuck.

Great place to get a little break from walking and bring the kids to the "Playground" ...

Nice park to take a walk in or just sit and relax by yourself or with family and friends.

Great little park for families to enjoy and the monthly art market is great for shopping.

Kewl lil spot where all the kewl kats n kittens hang out before a kewl night on bourbon.

Nice small park at the end of St. Charles streetcar stop. Has access to kid playground.

Nice green space uptown for picnic or local events like art markets or small festivals.

Big and spacious treelined park with walking track and a fountain , nice place to relax

Beautiful day, great selection of artists and vendors. Found some gifts for the family.

Nice park. Had a very nice art showcase Sunday (12/16/18). Food vendors...live music.

Love this park. It has a great, shaded playground and lots of grass to run around on.

I go there several times a week to walk relax, and it is always clean and well kept.

Nice and clean park that has events. Has a small kids area most likely for ages 3+.

Always visit this park could have more kids slides and rides but fun none the less

Great park for kids and the first Sunday art fair. Gets a little iffy at night.

Great park. Well maintained and in a decent neighborhood. And not overcrowded.

It was so pretty and picturesque. The energy was so harmonious and peaceful.

Nice family can enjoy walk n see a part of the city just moving eight along.

Love the Arts Festival held last Saturday of the Month. Always fun to go to.

Nice playground. People need to be responsible and keep public parks clean.
