Overview
About this park
A neighborhood park on the site of the original Brooklyn Primary School, which had over 200 students by 1902.
The park serves a neighborhood shaped by the arrival of the railroad and the 1891 eastside streetcar extension.
Background
History & notes
Three large golden granite boulders, situated near the play area, were sculpted into heads by California artist Marcia Donahue. The boulders, each weighing approximately 2-3 tons, were hand-picked by the artist at a ranch near Bakersfield, CA. The sculpture is aptly named Tête à Tête à Tête and serves as the permanent audience for baseball games as well as a gathering place for park visitors. The sculpture was installed in 1996.
