Portway Acres Park

Kids used to enjoy this park & it used to be very fun. Now it's dirty & not taken care of. The grass was very high (which is why there were a lot of mosquitoes), the little water area wasn't working, and the playground was so abandoned. You can tell the city still goes because the trash bags were switched out, but the care for the park is very sad & unmaintained.

Went to this park for the first time. It was pretty heavily vandalized with all the garbage bins knocked over, benches turned over and garbage everywhere. It had a sketchy vibe. It's too bad because I think this park has a lot of potential.

The overall vibe of this park is “unsafe.” Every time we’ve gone, there are always loose dogs at this park. Dogs are either from the neighborhood close by or irresponsible dog owners have them unleashed. My oldest dog was attacked by a pitbull here and the owners just left without taking accountability.

Probably the only park in the city with no bathroom. No police presence at all and at night it is full of kids breaking things . Lights on basketball court are dim and very dangerous to play after dark because you can barely see. Shame to see the park this way.......maybe the city could hire some security to preserve the park and make it safe for everyone.

I enjoy the beautiful garden. Appreciate the walking path to exercise and easy to watch my children play on playground. And very safe neighborhood as well. Parking lot is also spacey its one of my go to parks in Brownsville
