There seems to be some cruisy type stuff going on here, but it closes at 8pm now and seems busier with regular folk than would be condusive to doing anything.

I've been by there jogging on several occasions, and ventured in the bushes and have seen, 3 times, guys going down on each other. Once even saw a guy getting it from both ends by two well built joggers! Virtually no chance of being seen or caught either, great place!
