1 / 2Columbia Park 44th Street Playground
📍 Union City, NY
Clean water playground with climbing features and sprinklers that's ideal for summer visits, though families should be prepared for strictly enforced policies.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
This is a nice water playground with good facilities that's perfect for hot summer days, but be prepared for potential confrontations with overly strict staff. Best for families willing to follow all rules strictly, though the actual policies seem unclear and inconsistently posted.

“Great place to visit on a hot summer day. Colombia Park is a small park with a variety of water features and a larger climbing structure. Clean and well maintained by staff. Food, drinks and pets are not allowed.”

“This park is very nice and clean but upon arrival an old man kept on yelling at me in Spanish that I couldn’t bring my juice bottle in. Which was my daughters. He kept on saying in Spanish that if I went in with soda or juice they were going to call the cops on me. I looked at the signs and it does not say you can not bring in drink or food. So I ignored him and kept on playing with my daughter. However he was very annoying. And kept on watching us like if we were going to litter. Besides that this park is nice. It states no skate board and bikes and no dogs but it doesn’t state no food or drinks. So that’s why I’m rating it three stars.”
