Arbor Park is a more central location. It holds some exercise spaces, picnic shelters and a smaller playground. Brookside Glen residents practice sustainable farming at the Brookside Bayou and Community Gardens where wooden walkways and raised beds provide space for residents to grow and harvest seasonal produce.
