St. Mary’s Playground & Rec. Center

A children’s playground, baseball diamond, dog park, tennis, basketball, and volleyball courts, picnic areas, and a gymnasium are just some of what this park has to offer.

While the stairs between sections of the park can get a bit steep, the lush grassy fields & beautiful trees will make the trek well worth your while.

  • Originally a college built by Archbishop Alemany in 1862, St. Mary’s Park lived many lives before becoming the community park we see it as today. When it was finally converted into a park in 1952, the developers retained the name “St. Mary’s” as a nod to the origins of the land. Since then, the park has been extensively renovated to maintain the facilities.
