At just under one acre (0.8), this little park is likely one of the smallest in Portland, but it absolutely charming. It was once a horribly, ugly empty lot, but a group of concerned citizens did the paperwork necessary to have it declared a city park. It is fenced on two sides with a fence made of bicycles. The paved pathways are inlaid with mosaics of river rocks. The wall of the Cherry Sprout Market is adorned with a new mural.
