Theresa Hynes Park

All right, this is not really a park, and for a long time I did not believe it existed at all, because it was not evident to me where the green sign for it (on William Jackson Street near Chestnut Hill Drive) was pointing to. One day I realized that the long concrete walkway which appeared to be heading to an apartment complex, was actually heading to the park. As a park, it’s weird. It’s basically just a huge deck perched among the trees with a few benches. But hey! It’s a private spot where you can sit among the trees. How foolish I am to review it. Anyway, I love to come here and sit and meditate in this peaceful spot. It strikes me that it would also be the perfect place for a group who wanted to meet up – you could bring fold up chairs. It is also shady, which means it is a great place to bring a baby in a stroller on a hot day. Dogs are welcome and they have plastic bags for cleaning up after your dog, but there really isn’t much here a dog would be interested in.
