Very nice gift shop. Select a replica NASA space suit, a print of the Spirit of St. Louis, or a tee shirt of the Tuskegee Airmen, or a book about World War II.

Lots of classic, antique, and modern cars and other vehicles were on display for the 20th Labor Day Car Show. Large crowds gathered for the charitable event, that was also a competition.

Launch your boat from this location, for a fee. Rent a kayak or launch your own. Within steps of the Brickmaster Cafe and The View an entertainment and conference center.

New Visitor Center, signage indicates Friday and Saturday hours, since 6.24.22. I found a new observation deck at the Turtle Pond. I saw improvement to the existing deck, and a improved restroom. As far as the nature, I saw small rabbits at every location, like I've never seen before. Lots of birds: eagles, redbirds, little sparrows, and robins. I took two steps off a trail to observe birds in some under brush and nearly stepped on a long black snake. Overall good day, on my return visit.

Small enclosed space, that has bench seating and trash receptacles. Great views of waterfront in the distance. Also surrounded by picnic area, hiking trails and Outdoor Recreation Center is steps away.
