Is smale riverfront park an ok area to go with my 7 and 5 year old sons? We’re going to be in town for a reds game and looking for something to do during the day with them. That park looks nice but reviews seem mixed with some saying it’s great and some saying it’s a homeless hangout and shady. Looking for any knowledge of the area. Thanks guys. |

Its one of the spots I take my kids when we go to Cincinnati. Also check out jungle Jim's grocery store. You'll probably spend some money but its a fun time. The park is a long stretch and has a lot to see. Oftentimes there are different events going on and you'll find a snowcone truck or ice cream available. The playground area next to the bridge is great for kids that age. There are some other play spots too with water features that they can splash in to cool down. |

Not to exaggerate crime in the area, but this did happen not too far from there last fall. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/video-cincinnati-brawl-rcna221321 FWIW, just across the Ohio River from the stadiums is the Newport Aquarium and BB Riverboats. |
