I couldn't stop taking photos/vids b/c there was a photo op everywhere I turned. Even though I've been here numerous times b4, this was the 1st time I really slowed down & took in how beautiful everything is. It ended up being a really meaningful & peaceful experience. The walk itself was special,& the park made it feel even more uplifting & memorable!

The park has an inspiring story too; it used to be a dirty, concrete river channel but was turned into a lively green space. It even won awards like the American Planning Association's "Great Places in America." It has a modern carousel pavilion that's great for families, along with a sparkling fountain and an ice skating rink. There's lots of benches scattered along the path by trees. You can hear the water flowing over rocks or enjoy community events such as outdoor movies, fitness classes, or summer concerts. Whether you're seeking calm by the river or the energy of a weekend event, the park offers a little escape right in the heart of Stamford.

A decent little park. One of the better ones in Stamford…read more 2 recent October Sunday visits I saw quite a few dog walkers, joggers and fishermen. Yet the park was relatively empty. Quiet and peaceful. The parking lot (free parking!) is a potholed mess. But the 3/4 mile gravel walking path is in good shape. Lots of geese pooping all over the grass. Stay on the walking path. If you attempt to venture down to waters edge you will encounter empty beer cans, tons of broken glass and condom wrappers. (Why is Stamford such a pit?)

We were in the Stamford area and wanted to check out a nearby park. I saw that a few larger ones in…read morethe area charge a parking fee of $20-25. Looking at Kosciuszko Park, I saw that there was no fee, only fees for using the common area/Gazebo. We got there at about 5PM on a Friday afternoon. As noted on the website, there is no fee to enter the park. There is a large parking lot there and the only people that were in the park were a few runners and a few local older groups who seem to be regulars. The walking trails are gravel and dirt with lots of goose poop in the grass, so you can kiss those fresh all white sneakers goodbye if you are not careful. The park is a nice free option to get some good views while taking a walk. I do plan on returning on the nicer days to the visit the other fee-based parks, including Cove Island Park, as they seem to be a lot bigger and offer more to do.

It's just a short walk from there. The park itself is huge and offers a lot to see and do. Baseball/Softball fields, tennis courts and center, playgrounds, basketball courts, pool, handball courts, a lake, BBQ areas, and spacious areas. We ran a course along paved paths throughout which offered nice views. This park is so green! Another nice feature is the Greenway paths here for bicycles and pedestrians which weaves through the park. I feel the park needs just a bit more TLC from the parks dept and community. It's a nice place to spend some time in during the day.

Anytime day or night all year long the views are spectacular. I like there are police cars that patrol the area just to let us know a friendly face is in the area. I feel blessed every day that I live in Norwalk. The sense of community is strong at this park. You can see it in the eyes of the people as they greet strangers along the way, parents as they make sure to deposit their garbage in the cans in order to keep the park clean and the dog parents that pickup after them when the go. I have recently seen a festival take place at the top of the hill. It was impressive to see the port o potties make there way up there. When the festival was done the park was spotless.
