About Brown Park in Memphis

L.E. Brown Park is a 6-acre public park located on S. Orleans Street in Memphis, Tennessee. Originally developed in the 1950s as an on-site park for the Cleaborn Homes public housing development, it now serves the wider neighborhood community.

The park features a mix of recreational facilities and open green spaces. It includes a playground for children, providing a safe area for play and physical activity. For sports enthusiasts, there is a softball field, though it's worth noting that only a backstop is present - visitors need to bring their own bases if they wish to play a full game. The park also offers a basketball court for those who enjoy shooting hoops or playing pickup games.

For visitors looking to relax or have social gatherings, L.E. Brown Park provides two pavilions that can be used for picnics or community events. The park is open to the public from 6 a.m. until sunset year-round, offering ample opportunity for daytime use.

The park serves as a valuable community space. There are no walking trails, benches, or water fountains within the park grounds. However, off-street parking is available for visitors arriving by car.
