What people say
Nice park but when went to use the toilets was a bit shocked. The ceiling is reflective and there is no privacy with that. They need to take the ceiling reflective surface out.
There is something about concrete and architecture that captures my eye and excites my camera. The park is a place to sit, relax and enjoy the day.
Perfect spot to bring the kids. Loved the calm and peaceful park at the heart of Penrith.
