Joseph Byrne Playground

This is such a cute well maintained park! Really a hidden gem in Dorchester’s Clam Point. Not too crowded mainly just some kids playing street hockey and some dog walkers passing through.
The sign on the outside welcoming you to the neighborhood is frequently change and usually very informative as well as hilarious.

I drive by this park all the time & never actually realized it was there… its almost hidden and unless you live in the Neighborhood you probably wouldnt know the park was even there…
So this weekend when I drove by I promised I would go back as soon as I could & today was that day… so I had to drive around to figure out where the entrance was or where to park? Its literally in the middle of a block of houses & like I mentioned if you didnt know it was there you would prolly never see it…
So we parked on Everett St & I noticed a Hockey area and there were some kids playing Street Hockey… on the other side is all grass & park areas… Over far to the left is Tennis Courts & then in the very back is the Playground, TreeHouse things & Swings…
Now this WHOLE section of Playground slide stuff is fenced in (the park is also fenced in — so thats double fencing)…
There are 2 little structure thingys, one for littler kids & the other bigger one was still easily manuevable by my 2 year old…
There was also a sprinker (it was dark & Gloomy today so it wasnt one)…
So my son goes running to the slide & slides down before I notice that from Yesterdays rain there is a huge puddle at the bottom of it & he slides right into it… Great right!!! So wet pants & we diaper, we quickly left… (it was also starting to rain a little), but I did take tons of pics…
I do plan to go back as soon as I can so he can actually play more & not just slide 1 time… and if it stays as dead as it was today, It might be my new FAVE PARK!!!
