There's noise around the clock; and neighbors do nothing when you cordially remind them people have to work and perhaps they could take their stereos inside. There's also stray dogs running around loose, so this can't be a safe place for children ( or drivers who don't dodge quickly enough ). Although there are repeated violations, the Nashville Police Dept. will not come, and management raises a "well we're not here all the time" hand instead of actually doing something to retain considerate and law-abiding tenants

There is loud music, prostitution, gang activity and drug dealing day and night. Maintenance is okay but he spends most of his time cheating on his wife with the women in the park. Doesn't get much work done. They need someone who gets more work done. The pool is never open. The grass is never cut. The office is never open. Mill Creek is behind the park and no one cleans it out and maintains the bed area. There is no flood wall to protect homes. The park flooded so bad back about 10-20 years ago they had to take people out in row boats. There are several sink holes in the area that no one has filled in or tried to stop. Roads have holes and have not been repaved. Driveways are old cracked and not repaved. There is no parking. No shelter in case of emergencies. Decks and storage buildings are against codes specs. No locks on electrical boxes. Park plumbing is old and in state or needing repair. People who should not be renting or living here are everywhere. There are illegals and sometimes 10-15 people in one house. Its expensive to live in this park . Almost $500+ dollars a month plus a Yearly Tax(Property?) and that's all just for the land. The park itself does not want to take responsibility for who they let live here or for the protection of the residents of the park OR repairs to the park itself.

3.5 This is a hard…read morepark to review. Please don't allow the star rating to deter you from coming here, if you have reason to do so. I think my issue lies in the difference between my reasons for going to parks and the reason why Una Park exists... if such a thing makes sense. You don't come here by accident. By both location and function, there are only specific reasons to venture here. I have no idea what neighborhood this is. I want to say the park is outside of Nashville proper, belonging to the borg of greater Davidson County. I suppose that, in time, realtors will give it a snazzy name but for now, I'm lost if there is one. It's off Murfreesboro Pike past the airport heading towards Bell Road. Does that help? In any event, once you cross over Old M-boro Road and drive deeper into a residential area, you'll find it. This is a newer construction and obvious use of taxpayer funds. This was county land that locals, I assume, used to hike and/or ignore to their heart's content. Now, Una Park is a very impressive athletic destination. Large hills give way to sweeping sky views and multiple fields for all sorts of sporting interests. I noted 2-3 large baseball fields, a football field, a soccer field (that could be used for football), decent parking facilities (though not enough for all the different fields), concession stands, a pavilion, a small (new) playground, and a skate park. With the abundance of flood lights and team banners, Una Park is, obviously, ground zero for local sports teams and once spring hits, I'm sure it will be packed with families cheering on their young athletes. So, if you fall into this specific demo, Una Park is a 5-star park without a doubt. For the rest of us, however, Una Park isn't quite as welcoming. I like to come to parks to engage with green spaces, look at mature trees and flowers and get lost in my thoughts for a bit. Una Park doesn't offer much of any of this. This is a park of (local) utility rather than design. This isn't a 'park' in the sense of Radnor or Shelby. You don't come here to get away from city madness or take pictures. You come here to root on your athlete-scholar. That's fine and well but it's a bit too specific for my needs/interests at this time. If this is your bag, however, I'm sure you;ll love it. For what it is, it's very well done.

Una was originally a small village seated on the outskirts of Antioch, named as such back in 1882…read more As you drive through the neighborhood, you'll notice a lot of things in monikered "Una". The park itself was softly established in the 1960s, without much fanfare. Itself not far from the city of Murfreesboro, the park was home to sporting events between Nashville and Murfreesboro in the 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's. Metro Nashville pumped some money into the park in 2007, re-establishing the park at the time. It currently has a playground, baseball field, football field, and skate park over 24 acres. It has paved pathways between and around the various fields, and it took us about half an hour to walk about .8mile around the park.

This review is for Azafran Park…read more A recent study had shown that less than half of Nashvillians lived within a ten minute walk to a public park. Because of this, Nashville has been working into putting smaller, popup "pocket parks" in neighborhoods. One of the first of these to be built is Azafran Park. This park is tiny, at less than an acre. But they use this space well. When I first walked in, my first reaction was, "There's no way taxpayer money paid for this." There's a sculptural maze, a mural, multiple sculptures, a splash pad, and a drum circle. And I was right, kind of. This particular park was originally a car repair shop, and was picked because this neighborhood has the largest concentration of immigrant families in the county. Because of the ambition, this particular park received donations from many private companies, including the HCA Foundation, the Walt Disney Company, Vanderbilt University, and the Rotary Club of Nashville. This park opened in 2018, and hosts a farmers' market. The mural in particular includes coins from all around the world, to represent the multiple countries represented in the neighborhood. It's absolutely beautiful.

These people usually work through neighborhood organizations or special interest groups. The folks at Neighbor2Neighbor (formerly NRC) help those organizations figure out what they're doing and how to survive. Having been elected the president of my neighborhood association recently, and wanting to do the job right and not just half ass it, I started on one of their programs. Basically a neighborhood organization boot camp. They also provide services to neighborhood groups wishing to maintain their tax exempt status without having to have someone in the group intimately familiar with how to run and file for a 503c1 (or whatever the number currently is.) They've helped me a lot with being handed the reigns of an atrophied neighborhood association at least knowing where to steer it and how *not* to look at the thing.
