There were a couple of families with little people enjoying the play area. The tennis courts and the baseball diamonds were completely empty. Not sure if this usual or not. I could see another playground off in the distance behind the baseball area, but didn't get a chance to get over there to get a closer look. In general, it was really calm. Even with little people around. They seem to have been enjoying their time very much, and the parents either sat quietly nearby or helped them onto the playground equipment. There is plenty of walking space, and also places to come and enjoy a late breakfast or lunch. The wide-open spaces are large enough to accommodate sizable parties for those who are looking for a location to host a get together in a public space. And there are a couple of pavilions.

According to Friends of Washington Park "One of the focal points of the Washington Park historic neighborhood is the recreational park. The land for the park was donated by the early 20th century African American developer Heman Perry. The park started with a gift of six and a half acres and expanded to 25 acres when completed in 1928. It originally included a swimming pool, dancehall, pavilions, and tennis courts. This historic park has been referenced in the writings of many notable Atlantans over the years as a social center for swimming, tennis, dancing, and gathering. Today, Washington Park is home to one of only 5 city of Atlanta natatoriums and a state-of-the-art tennis center. Washington Park is bordered by the proposed Beltline, which has prompted development in the surrounding Washington Park Neighborhood. The Washington Park Historic District is a historically neighborhood in northwest Atlanta encompassing historic residential, commercial, and community landmark buildings. It is situated two miles west of the central business district of Atlanta. In addition, please come out and join the fun every third Saturday in beautifying Washington Park! Friends of Washington Park (FoWP) is a volunteer organization formed in 2007 with the goal of supporting the historic Washington Park recreational area. FoWP is working to promote a public space which improves the quality of life through safe, clean, and well-maintained green space and high quality facilities." www.washingtonparkatlanta.org
