The private park was a tree lined walkway with seating. The walkway was wide and, despite being bracketed by tall buildings, felt wide open.

A sign part way through the park, labeled it as, "Rincon Place." To the left was a ramp for the disabled. Ahead was a flight of stairs.

To the left were wooden steps leading up and out of the park. To the right were larger steps for seating, perhaps a good place to enjoy lunch.
