I grew up minutes away and back in the day, this place was such a dirty, nasty cesspool, overrun with homeless people and some seriously sketchy characters. I wouldn't even let my dog do his business out there for the fear of one of us stepping on a used needle or getting mugged. But that was all in the past. After the city leveled that disaster of a park, Young circle underwent an incredible transformation. The result is absolutely amazing. I never in a million years pictured that dump to look the way it does today. It's a beautiful little escape, right in the center of the downtown area. It has a modern style playground for kids, a joggers path around the perimeter, a beautiful fountain at its center, an abundance of gorgeous foliage, a singing tree (!!!), lush green grass (for laying or picnicking), a building that houses pottery and art classes, and, best of all, a huge stage that's already featured some pretty awesome bands. They also have food truck nights work tons of trucks to choose from. But best of all, a safe atmosphere for me and my family. Security doesn't bother you and does a great job at keeping the peace.
