Lonnie Green Park

A Piece of Sugar Land History

Positioned in Sugar Land lies a park with a touching backstory. Lonnie Green Park honors the memory of Lonnie Green, the sole Sugar Land soldier who lost his life in battle during World War I. Just outside the playground, you can find a dedication sign that represents both a memorial and a gentle reminder of this local hero's sacrifice.

Nature's Quiet Corner

Situated behind the winding Oyster Creek, this park offers a peaceful retreat from everyday hustle. Magnificent oak trees spread their branches overhead, creating natural canopies of shade that keep the play areas cool even during Texas heat.

These grand old trees give the park its tranquil character, allowing you to reconnect with nature without leaving the city. The creek setting adds to the park's charm, creating a serene backdrop that's excellent for unwinding.

If you're lucky, you might catch sight of trains passing by in the distance - a small detail that adds to this local space's character. The gentle creek views complete the peaceful atmosphere that makes locals return time and again.

Play Spaces for the Little Ones

Parents will appreciate the thoughtfully designed fenced-in play area that houses two separate playgrounds. One is specifically built for the 2-5 years crowd, while the second caters to children aged 5-12 years.

The enclosed design means you can relax a bit more while your kids explore and play. Thanks to those magnificent oaks, the playground stays comfortably shaded most of the day - a true blessing during hot Texas afternoons.

Gather & Grill

When hunger strikes, you've got options. Inside the fenced playground area, you'll discover two covered picnic tables where you can keep an eye on the kids while enjoying a snack or meal.

Planning something more substantial? Three additional picnic tables sit just outside the playground fence, alongside a BBQ pit that's ideal for grilling. These simple but practical amenities make the park an excellent spot for casual family gatherings or meeting up with friends for an afternoon cookout.
