About the Location

A Bit of History

Situated in Berkeley, California, Haskell-Mabel Mini-Park is one of those little green treasures you might walk right past if you're not paying attention. This pocket-sized park came to life in October 1975 and takes up just 0.13 acres (about 5,660 square feet) - basically the size of a couple of basketball courts put together.

Little Ones' Play Space

This cozy spot represents a neighborhood playground that's excellent for the youngest adventurers in your life. If you've got toddlers or kiddos up to 5 years old, they'll find this place just right for their size and abilities - no intimidating big-kid equipment here!

What makes this park stand out is its clever stonewall with stair and ramp access - a little architectural touch that adds character to this tiny space. The sand area is usually a hit with the little ones, great for impromptu digging projects and castle-building sessions.

Natural Charm

A newer addition that's bringing some extra life to the park is its lovely pollinator garden. It's not just pretty to look at - this garden actually helps support local bees, butterflies, and other critters that keep our ecosystem thriving.

Situated on a corner, this park definitely qualifies as a lesser-known park. You might walk right by without noticing it, but that's part of its charm.

Why It Matters

Don't let the small size fool you - this mini park packs a lot into its modest footprint. For nearby residents, it offers a little green retreat from city life, a place to let the kids burn off some energy, and a quiet spot to connect with nature without having to venture far from home.
