I wish Midwood Park were larger, but it's a nice little get-away in the middle of the Plaza Midwood neighborhood.
With an outdoor amphitheater, the park often plays host to neighborhood festivals and events. I had a fun time hanging out and watching bands there during Midwood Maynia in the spring.
The park also has a tennis court, full basketball court, soccer field and playground. There is also a shelter you can rent for picnics or parties. One really interesting aspect is the community garden, where neighborhood residents grow herbs and other plants.
Tip: It's kind of hard to find. Map it and write down directions before you go.
