“Beautiful, peaceful walk on a late Saturday afternoon into early evening. Quiet. I like it. I also wonder if it can be developed into a little more, without becoming too crowded, dirty, busy. More patio seating restaurants? I know we went there off season so we missed the gondoliers, kayaks, etc. Still a lovely place to walk without dealing with traffic.

“We enjoyed the beautiful walk along the canal after we visited the Colts Playscape. The canal path was nice and wide, great for a stroller and two kids who like to go at their own pace. The ducks and swans were neat to see and they were not shy around humans. Only downside was there being no bathrooms nearby.”

“This is a gorgeous area! There are so many wonderful things to see here. The fountain, the gondolas (we heard one gondolier singing) and swan boats, art all around, ducks and geese, a steam-powered clock (almost said giraffe, which is something completely different, but would be awesome to see here, too, lol), memorials, museums, restaurants. We're so happy to have gotten to visit and experience it on such a perfect ”
