A place worth the visit even if no program is scheduled. It’s essentially a small passive park with a wonderful history, great spaces and beautiful buildings. Don’t be afraid to pack a blanket lunch or light dinner. I don’t remember seeing any picnic tables. The park is scaled for small intimate gatherings. It’s not the park for large family picnics or raucous get togethers.

I went here for an event and it's a cool place! They always have events and the ticketed ones sell out fast, so we felt lucky we could visit for one, let alone the night was clear enough to see the moon in the older telescope. They do have a lot of events, including free ones, that are also popular. It's perfect for a date night or for a special event. Worth the visit!

We went here as a girl scout event and our entire family loved it. I had no clue the oldest telescope in the western hemisphere was right here! The buildings were great old architecture, the telescopes were fascinating to everyone and the presenter was engaging and fun! I can't wait to go back! Be aware there are stairs up into the buildings, stairs up to the observatory rooms with the telescopes and the observatories are very echo-y. People with mobility issues and sensory issues will need to be ready. Parking is a little strange as there didn't seem to be lines. you just kind of parked where you could around the circle and walked up to the buildings. I recommend anyone who loves space (or has kids in love with space) to go here. We had nothing but clouds but the presenter was able to show us things on the computer. She then showed us how the buildings opened and telescope moved. Still educational!

We went on a date night here and it couldn't have been better. Only thing is if you dont want to be out late at night its not for you we was out here past 12. But it was mind blowing to learn more and to actually look through the telescopes. There is tons of history and great facts you will learn by coming here. This will change your life.
