I loved this park. I drove by it during the day and I didn't think about it much. I'm not from the area but it seemed to be in the not best part of town. I went later in the evening with my mother to go for a walk and we loved it. It is very large and there was a great amount of people doing all sorts of things. Lots of people having fun with their friends. The park lights up at night in a great manner that makes it all very beautiful.

This is a lovely downtown area of Birmingham. A clean and green park with trails and more. Great place for a walk or to chill. Well done.

Beginning the tour was 3 plus aisle of reading. This part could have been done better. Once you entered the immersive room it was fantastic. There were a few benches. My thouyis this could have been done in a theater setting or IMAX. Would recommend.

We had the opportunity to walk our dog in the park on a midday afternoon. The park was extremely clean, there was plenty of nearly parking and we felt very safe.

The amount of seating, shaded spots, places with different views depending on where you look is all wonderful. Alongside that, there were actual signs helping recommend exercises to people while also warning that you need to consider your own health before following them was a nifty addition I’d not seen in a park before.

We really enjoyed walking around and sitting and relaxing at the Railroad Park. Nice to be outside and offers the opportunity for some good people watching.

I just wouldnt go there right now as i have read it's overcrowded during virus times... otherwise, it's a beautifully designed park with water features. The start of a great development area in town.

Is the area open, lit, safe at night?

Hi, Aaron. It is open and dimly lit, but I would be very uneasy around there at night. There is a ballpark and great brewery right around there, so the area will be full of people, but very few will be hanging out in railroad park. It is patrolled by security, but I would still feel uncomfortable there at dark.
Is it good idea to take.babies and small children to Railroad park to take there photography's?
