General Description

Several young Pin Oaks shade the grass-covered triangle park which serves as a pedestrian island at the signaled intersection of Kearney Street and Sims Way. It also serves as an occasional gathering space for local protests, political campaign sign-waving, demonstrations, celebrations and other spontaneous outdoor events.

History

This pocket park first appeared in the parks inventory in the 1991 Parks Functional Plan. The park is the only one of the three so-called Triangle Parks in the 1991 Plan which has not gained a different name in common usage. It is still referred to in City records as Triangle III. High traffic limits access.
