Park Type Neighborhood<br />
Location Tower Ave., between Pine <strong>and</strong> Magnolia<br />
Description<br />
This “pocket” park fronting Tower Avenue was acquired by<br />
<strong>Centralia</strong> in 1970. The dilapidated building located on this site<br />
was demolished <strong>and</strong> park improvements were funded through a<br />
Local Improvement District This park links with a public<br />
parking lot behind the business district <strong>and</strong> provides a green<br />
respite from the hard surfaces <strong>of</strong> the downtown during the warm<br />
weather. The park is generally in good condition, appropriately<br />
furnished <strong>and</strong> a popular attraction for shoppers <strong>and</strong> <strong>of</strong>fice<br />
workers. This site also serves as a staging area for special <strong>and</strong><br />
community events.<br />
