Pocket Parks

Pocket Parks

What Is a Pocket Park? Some cities don't have space for big, grassy parks. That's why they build pocket parks instead.

A pocket park is like a regular park, only smaller. A pocket park can take up a city block. It can also be as small as a parking space.

Lots of Empty Lots An empty lot is a great place for a pocket park. It can take many workers to build one.

People who live close by can help, too. They can plant flowers or trees. They can also help keep the park clean and safe. Every pocket park is different.

Different Pocket Parks This pocket park has a waterfall at the back. It also has many places for people to sit.
