Riverfront Park -The Fountain at Centennial Park at a glance
Reviewers describe the park as a clean, family-friendly space featuring walking trails, seating, and a water fountain for children to cool off during summer. The Thursday farmers market and proximity to local dining options are frequently highlighted as positive amenities. Common criticisms include the fountain being inactive at times, the area attracting large crowds that overwhelm younger children, and concerns about bird droppings on benches and sidewalks.

This is a beautiful park with a few walking trails near the river. It also has a fountain that they let people come and wade in during the summer.

This park is a great place to bring the kids to cool off in the summer! There's plenty of seating and shade. Riverfront Park is also just steps away from Historic Market Street in Downtown Corning. Market Street has a wide variety of retail & food. My recommendations for food are Atlas Pizza for lunch and Mooney's.…

My kids love going to the fountain during the summertime. It's usually not too crowded and it's a nice way to cool off for free. There's benches around for anyone who just wants to relax. There's also walking paths and grassy areas all around too.

My recommendations for food are Atlas Pizza for lunch and Mooney's. Atlas Pizza has plenty of seating, great prices and the pizza is mouthwatering! As for a dinner spot, you really can't go wrong with Mooney's. They boast quite possibly the BEST tasting Mac & Cheese selections in New York State! I love the Lobster Mac & Cheese 😋 and the portion sizes are huge! Definitely a great place to take the family for a a good meal & great atmosphere!
