TILLMAN PARK

Public BBQ

Tillman Park reveals itself as a delightfully unexpected urban oasis where the rhythmic clatter of passing trains provides an oddly soothing soundtrack to family barbecues. The compact carpark accommodates about ten vehicles under generous shade, while the well-designed playground keeps younger children thoroughly entertained. What sets this spot apart is its unique vantage point - families can watch both trains and aircraft while enjoying their meal at the picnic tables. The sizeable open field behind the playground offers ample space for frisbee games and ball sports. Public toilets and a water bubbler add practical convenience, though the facilities show their age. The white picket fencing creates a safe, contained environment perfect for weekend gatherings. Despite occasional maintenance issues with the grass, the abundant tree cover and thoughtful layout make this an ideal location for afternoon barbecues, especially when children need space to burn off energy while parents appreciate the entertainment value of passing transport.
