Piccolo Park

Piccolo Park is a public park in Portland, Oregon's Hosford-Abernethy neighborhood, in the United States. The space was acquired in 1989. In 2018, Portland Monthly Rebecca Jacobson wrote, "In an alternate reality, this land would be part of a freeway, an eight-lane artery splitting off the Marquam Bridge and lashing through Southeast on its way to Mount Hood. Those dastardly plans were torpedoed in 1974, and in 1989 this midblock half-acre park opened off of SE Division between 27th and 28th Avenues. The little oasis has a playground and enough grass to turn 14 successive cartwheels."
