There is a five-way intersection in Nanaimo where Bastion Street, Fitzwilliam Street, Fraser Street and Wallace Street all meet. That convergence has created an odd little triangle of land that the city has turned into a pocket park with a bench and flowers. The building beside the park has a wall that has been turned into an amazing, huge, vertical garden. Beside the wall is a sculpture by…

Ord & Yale Street Park, 524 Ord St, Los Angeles (Chinatown), CA 90012

The Ord & York pocket park opened in late 2021. It’s a gorgeous park on the edge of Chinatown, next to the Chinatown Public Library. Vagrants have always hung out in that area and they’re at the park now. Even worse, there’s graffiti all over the restrooms and picnic area. I’d be afraid to use the restroom. I heard someone yelling in there. A homeless person was sleeping in the playground and there wasn’t one child using the playground. In fact, the only people in the park were homeless. No one was using the picnic and game tables and someone left trash on the tables.

But the park is still very pretty and has a red entrance that looks Chinese. It’s half an acre and on a hillside. There are viewing platforms and exercise equipment, plus decorated stairs with inspiring messages. The landscaping, plants, trees, and waterfall still look nice. There’s a mix of trees from Asian and native plants.

I fear that in a few years, the park is going to be completely trashed.

“We knew there wasn’t really a park that was in walking distance from a lot of the folks who visit our library,” said David Seckman, Jeffersonville Township Public Library’s Director. “There really aren’t a whole lot of accessible playgrounds really anywhere in the state of Indiana, so we wanted to make a place that was accessible for all ages.”

This is a lie.

Not even a block away is Warder Park, a nice peaceful park for rest and relaxation. And a couple of blocks away in a different direction is a playground behind the Firetruck Museum.

As you can probably tell I'm not happy about this. To construct this pocket park they ripped out beautiful blue spruces, lavender and other beautiful plantlife. This really breaks my heart.
