La Plaza Park

A Historic Space in San Bernardino

Tucked away on Mt. Vernon Avenue, La Plaza Park is a charming 2.04-acre green oasis in the heart of San Bernardino. Since its establishment in 1945, this little urban retreat connects to the area's rich Mexican Heritage and has become an important community space over the decades.

Play and Gather

While compact, the park packs in plenty of appeal with its cozy playground where local kids can burn off energy and make memories. Need a spot for your community meetup or family gathering? The park's assembly area features a lovely gazebo that provides welcome shade on those classic California sunny days. This versatile space hosts everything from car shows to family celebrations and small business fairs.

For outdoor meals on a beautiful day, La Plaza Park offers picnic tables and BBQ grills. You'll find benches scattered throughout the north and south sides of the park, and here's the cool part - most come with their own attached grill, making impromptu cookouts a breeze. Just bring your food, charcoal, and good company!

Deep Cultural Roots

This isn't just any neighborhood park - its historical significance has earned recognition from the Hampton Hotels Save-A-Landmark program as a site worth preserving. Take a moment to appreciate the Veterans Angel monument, which holds special meaning for many community members.

Locals affectionately call this space "The Placita," where community events often celebrate the area's cultural heritage and traditions.
