The park is a nice respite from the crowds and hustle bustle of the districts. The river is pretty and we had a nice view of the football stadium. Their were people rowing boats in the river and kids playing so it was peaceful. There are some homeless around but they did not aggressively panhandle like I have seen at other places.

The park is very interesting. There were not too many people there. There were a few homeless people sleeping there. You get a great view of the Tennessee Titans stadium.

A nice place to take a stroll or sit and watch the river, but not as nice as other riverfront parks, such as the one in Chattanooga.

My wife and I went here to watch the July 4th fireworks. Lots of vendors around selling food and drink and the view was perfect.

Overlooking the Cumberland River and Nissan Stadium in downtown Nashville. Nice place to sit or take a stroll and to take a break from the mayhem on Broadway.

I have been here several times in the past years. What happened? The street along the park is closed off and bumpsters everywhere. Homeless people are everywhere! My 12 yo daughter and I didn't feel safe walking in the middle of the day!! This was her first experience and she asked why I brought her here because it was filthy and nasty. On the bridge she threw her ice cream away and said she had lost her appetite! My heart breaks knowing what this place used to be.

This is a beautiful park located right at the end of Broadway. You can walk along the river, and see the stadium across the river. There is part of an old fort and a lot of signs telling the history of the area which is interesting. Unfortunately we walked in the morning and there were a LOT of homeless people hanging out just waking up for the day. No police presence in sight. I wouldn't walk or run alone.

Since the weather was nice we walked around the park. Walking by the river was nice. We spent an hour or so just walking around and enjoying the views.

Hi! We will be in Nashville 10/4 and 5….can you tell me what the daily parking fee at Riverfront Park would be at that time? And should we get parking tickets ahead of time? Thank you

Parking anywhere around that area is expensive, $20 or more. That area of Nashville is so walk-able, there is a free electric bus system that runs across town, you could also try valet at some of the hotels close to town, maybe their prices are better.
