Leeson Place Reserve is a public park at 11 Leeson Pl in Mangere, Manukau City, Auckland, with a Google rating of 4.0.
A good neighbourhood park is simple and well used: open grass for ball games and walking, some shade, and paths and edges that are easy to move around with a pushchair or a bike. If you are choosing a park for a family outing, check for a playground, seating and nearby toilets before you go, since small reserves do not always have all three. Regulars know the quiet times are usually early morning and mid-afternoon before school finishes, and that grass can stay damp for a while after Auckland rain. Auckland parks often have set rules for dogs, so it is worth reading the signs at the entrance. Taking your rubbish home or using the bins keeps a shared space pleasant for the people who live around it.
For people living in Mangere, Leeson Place Reserve on Leeson Pl is a convenient green space close to home.
