    You'll find Voinovich Bicentennial Park more or less between the Inner Harbor, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the football stadium. It's a gorgeous oasis with plenty of waterfront scenery, lots of boats, public art, statues, benches, lots of gorgeous green grass, and endless photo ops. We strolled around after visiting the Rock and Roll HOF and had a very nice time.

    A downtown CLEVELAND staple with spectacular Lake Erie views. It located in the East 9th street pier on the North Coast Harbour. I can't believe that I have not reviewed this park yet. It's awesome and if I lived downtown, I would be here all the time. It isn't the best park in Cleveland but it is good enough for the services it offers such as free yoga. Speaking of parks, check out Lakewood Park and Edgewater Park in Lakewood. RUNNING - Some runners will jog around the park but it is a small park. You can still do some fitness exercise here on your own. There is plenty of grass space to do a cardio or strength based workout. FREE YOGA - This is my favourite thing about this park besides the wonderful lake views. There are free yoga classes here every summer leading into the Autumn season (June - September). The classes are offered by different Cleveland Yoga studios. Check out the below website for details - http://www.northcoastharbor.org/events/event/north-coast-namaste/ PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES - The iconic "Cleveland" script sign is here so you can come take photos in front of it. It's wonderful and overlooks the water. FOOD / BATHROOM - There is a restaurant right next to the park so if you are hungry then stop on in. I've never been there but it's on my list. It's called "Nuevo" and it is a Mexican restaurant and bar. Anytime I need the bathroom, I always go into the restaurant and they allow me to use their bathroom. I can't remember if there is a portable toilet here at the park but I don't remember seeing one. TOURIST - The Goodtime III cruise is docked here. The boat departs from here several times a day for their cruises. I recommend taking a cruise sometime to learn about the history of the City of Cleveland while viewing Lake Erie. CONS - There are no benches to sit at but right on the water, they have these big steps that you can sit on which is an option. It would also be nice if food trucks or a food stand was here. This park is a perfect location to have a mini food station (informal). The restaurant next door is an option but it isn't as casual. Overall, I recommend visiting this park. Although it is small, it's well kept (clean), there is a parking lot, and the LAKE ERIE view is breath taking. *** - 208 total Yelp reviews. - I have written 162 Yelp reviews in 2018.

    Sunset

    It is so beautiful, clean and a friendly spot. Must go if you want to watch the sunset on a clear sky day. I visited this place during my visit and loved walking around and just breathing in the fresh air. Watching the sun melt into the lake was picturesque!

    Beautiful place for a beautiful bike on a nice warm day

    This is such an iconic Cleveland park, and a must see if you are in Cleveland! As a photographer, this is always a favorite spot for weddings as well, as it provides a skyline view of the city as well as a background of Lake Erie. Highly recommend! Images by Jennifer Elizabeth Photography.

    View of the Air Show from the park!
    Cara L.

    If for no other reason, go here to check out the Cleveland Air Show for free--it's one of the best views of the show around The Land. But as a park, it's just awesome. Like yelper Alexander B mentioned, this park is way underutilized. It boasts fabulous views of both the city scape and lake. It's well maintained and relatively safe, considering there is a regular guard that remains there for the hours it's open. I will say that the city does a few events at the park during the warmer months, but I'd love to see more--especially with it's awesome location right next to the Browns Stadium, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Great Lakes Science Center. Keep in mind that this is more of a place to make your own fun, so don't expect a jungle gym for the kiddies, etc. I absolutely love this park for a sunset bike ride and stroll, but I'm really looking forward to having a picnic here one of these days.

    The view of the city from here is actually phenomenal! Not only that, but you can walk alongside Lake Erie to get to enjoy the views of the water from here as well. There is tons of open area so it is spacious enough for various activities, and if you are new to the city (or just like Cleveland attractions) there is a very cool Cleveland sign that is perfect for taking pictures and just enjoying the city!

    They have the iconic "Cleveland" sign here with a great view of the Cleveland skyline and Lake Erie. It is located right behind the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Mexican Restaurant. I do recommend that they add a few benches. No place to take a seat and enjoy the scenery. An ice cream stand might also be nice here. Nevertheless, you get great views here.

    A Winter Wonderland!
    Duncan B.

    This place is pretty beautiful year round we visited today and it was amazing. This place is great to get a pic with the famous Cleveland sign, watch the lake crash on to the shores or just look at how beautiful Cleveland is!

You cannot get to one through the other. You actually have to drive out of the park to other entrances to access each area. There is plenty of walking, running, biking, scooters, trails. And plenty of grass area in both to play soccer, baseball, football, frisbee, kites, almost anything. There is even a dog beach. Lots of things to do and to enjoy yourself outside. You cannot even bring a sandwich, chips and a drink or whatever and have a spontaneous picnic. The other fun thing to do is watch the air show from here. It's free and you see most of it. You even get buzzed by a plane or two. This is an enjoyable park. I wish it was closer to me. You cannot even bring even get a great pic of Cleveland and one of the Cleveland signs.

    It might not seem like much, but Lincoln Park is almost the perfect park in almost the perfect…read moreCleveland neighborhood: Tremont. It's a large rectangle with (mostly) symmetrically pathways diagonal and across, but not through. It's all grass, and there are dozens of trees (and hundreds of squirrels), but aside from the children's playground in the southeast quadrant and the gazebo in the very center, there's not much variation. You can probably play a game of soccer/football/ultimate/kill the carrier in the northern part, where the trees are sparsest, but it isn't really a playing-sports park. No, Lincoln Park is more of a let's-visit-the-park kind of park. Maybe a poet's park? It's somewhere to walk and contemplate. I've done hours and hours of walking here, often in the snow, although I wish those hours had added up to at least days, if not weeks. One of my only regrets (of things under my control) from my year of living in Cleveland is that I didn't spend as much time in Tremont as I wanted to. The park really is lovely. It was way underutilized back then, but even though it was often nearly or totally empty, it didn't feel unloved. It's a proud old park in a proud old neighborhood of a proud old city. Whenever you're ready to enjoy it, it will be waiting silently for you. I really love it.

It is a very nice and well kept park in terms of cleanliness, but I will say the only reason why this review isn't 5 stars is because the homeless population is a bit overwhelming at times. I have physically seen people talking to themselves or digging through the trashcan at this park. I really wish there was some way the park or the police perhaps could assist these people who regularly attend the park. Other than those factors, it is very nice! I also enjoy the Farmer's Market on Tuesdays during the summer!

    I remember the first time I visited Cleveland, about thirty years ago. I was NOT impressed…read more Visiting here made me feel depressed, like I was in a slowly deteriorating city with political leaders who lacked the motivation to keep this historic city beautiful, like the real gem that it is. However, I have also had several opportunities to visit this city over these last thirty years and I have seen great improvements since that time. One of the small efforts to beautify this city came with the decision to add several "Cleveland" script signs at various locations around the city, like here in the Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland. I have visited a few of the Cleveland script signs, and this one here in Tremont is my favorite so far. It is located in a beautiful little neighborhood, within an area that almost feels like a small park. Even though it's in a beautiful little neighborhood, it is close enough to the heart of the city to provide visitors with a breathtaking view of the Cleveland skyline, along with several beautifully constructed historic bridges within view. To add to how pleasant this location is, there are also railroad tracks nearby, where one can occasionally see a powerful train pass by. Still further, there is also a nicely constructed walkway through this area where folks can take a nice stroll while enjoying the view. The Cleveland script sign here in Tremont is easy to get to, located just south of the Cuyahoga River, with nearby exits from both directions of the Interstate 90 freeway. There is also a nice, clean and safe place to park within walking distance that is open daily, from 6am until 11pm. This parking area has several parking spots, most of which are under the I-90 overpass, and parking is free. If you happen to be visiting the Cleveland area, I would highly recommend that you stop by this location for a quick visit. It's a great place to take in a breathtaking view of this beautiful city, and of course, to snap that selfie of your visit to Cleveland.

The garden is part of the Cleveland Public Library and it is actually connected to it. It is named after Linda Eastman who was director of the library years ago (1918-1938). I finally visited in July 2023 with a friend. We both enjoyed walking around, taking photos, and admiring the beautiful windows of one of the adjoining buildings. The garden is surrounded by trees, a tall iron gate at both entrances, a very small waterfall, benches, and movable chairs with a tables placed all around the garden. When you step into the garden, you instantly feel a sense of happiness, serenity, and peace as you hear birds chirping and breath in fresh air. Hopefully you visit on a quiet day because there are always events around the city especially in the summer months. If I lived downtown, I would definitely come here often to read outside. I highly suggest tourists to visit this rather unique garden which feels like a small park in the middle of downtown. **** GOAL of 150 reviews in 2024 - 21/150 total reviews in 2024 - 671 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 20 April 2024

It is astonishing how peaceful it is, and how it breaks up the city life around you.

A part of the Cleveland Public Library, the Garden honors long-time benefactors the Eastman Family.
