I had heard quite a bit about the newly renovated Albion Park in Somerville, MA. So I immediately went online to try and find some updated photos/videos of the park. Unfortunately, I didn’t find any.
So, during out recent visit to the park I decided I would put some of that content together for other parents wondering the same thing. The renovations are really wonderful—this is park definitely worth visiting!

Here is a video of the park, which gives you a very good sense of how everything is laid out.
Here are some new photos of the park. The park setup is really interesting. There are a few tables upon entry into the park which are perfect for relaxing/lunch. Additionally, in the middle is an elevated area of grass which is perfect for picnics too (plus the kids can roll down the gradual hill). Then there are two playground structures, one for older kids and the other for younger kids. Half the park is dedicated to a basketball court. And one corner of the park has a water play section with fountains, jets, etc. Finally, there is a new community garden in the back area as well.
