Tony Brush Park

Tony Brush Park is a public green space located at the intersection of Random and Mayfield Roads in the Little Italy neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio. The park was dedicated in 1993 and is named after Anthony Brescia, also known as Tony Brush, a champion boxer and prominent resident of Little Italy.

The park serves as a central gathering place for the community and offers recreational facilities for visitors of all ages. It was developed on the site of a former baseball field and playground, which had been dedicated in 1972 as Random Road Park. The transformation into Tony Brush Park fulfilled the vision of its namesake, who had been one of the first presidents of the Mayfield-Murray Hill District Council and had advocated for creating a recreational space in this location.

Tony Brush Park provides a mix of amenities suitable for various activities. It features areas for both active play and relaxation, making it a versatile space for neighborhood residents and visitors. The park's location in the heart of Little Italy makes it easily accessible and a popular spot for community events, including the Little Italy Artisan & Farmers Market, which is occasionally held here.

The park's design incorporates elements that reflect the character of the Little Italy neighborhood while providing modern recreational facilities. Its proximity to local businesses, restaurants, and cultural attractions in Little Italy adds to its appeal as a central feature of the community.
