Small but beautiful and well kept. Because it backs up to the main library it would be nice if it had a more inviting space to read, but that suggestion does not take away from my rating. Great park.

Have known about this place for years. Finally made it down to see it today. The park is good size with plenty of picnic tables. The sculptures are well done and need to see. I was just disappointed that they weren't spread out more throughout the park. They are all basically centralized. The paved path could use a little attention. And, the restrooms were closed on a busy Saturday morning/afternoon.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Where do I park my car

I know you can park on town street right there in front of topiary Park I parked my motorcycle there all the time. However you could just call the library they have garage parking, and I think they voucher your parking but I'm not positive so just call and ask but you can park on Town Street

How big is the park? can you drive thru the park? Is it worth visiting on vacation?

Floyd Rush | Sep 27, 2018
Christina Miller | Sep 27, 2018

You can't drive a car through it as it is for pedestrian use. Still, it is worth a visit, especially to see the topiary sculptures around the pond. During Spring and Summer, the flowers are amazing. If you love architecture, you can admire the Christo Rey school building. It used to be the Old Deaf School and it's exterior is impressive. Additionally, this park is next to Columbus' Main Library. It is one of the top rated libraries in the US. Its building is spectacular and it recently was renovated and a large addition was added to the back of the building. This park is one of my most favorite places in Columbus.

We want to go on December 23. Are there bathrooms open at this time of year?

Phyllis Radke | Sep 26, 2021
David Roduner | Sep 26, 2021

No, there are no bathrooms at the park itself at any time. Usually you can use the library, which the park connects to, but I think it's locked down due to increases in COVID19 cases. It won't take too long to walk through, though. You may consider additionally checking out the State Auto Nativity (518 E Broad) just north of there since it's so close. Also check out the lights display at Columbus Commons (160 S High St). All are free to the public. Columbus Commons may have bathrooms available, but I haven't been there recently, so I can't guarantee it. Franklin Park Conservatory has a wonderful lights display, expanded from last year, but you have to pay for that. It has bathrooms, of course.
