I’m not sure when the last time you were there was, but even 20 years ago this place was a dump. The best thing about it was the petting zoo, which has now been reduced down to a handful of greedy goats. Pigeons are literally the main attraction now as they are impossible to miss since they are EVERYWHERE (as is their poop)! I thought this place was sad as a child, but having recently taken my son there, I realized it either always was or is now just deplorable.
