In time Northtown will have a first-class park system. Amenities already include a pavilion, dog parks, ball fields, trails and playscapes. Unfortunately, some people don't appreciate nice parks and don't want you to enjoy them either. Graffiti has been sprayed on many surfaces including park structures, signs and trees, and other damage has been reported as well.
