We were lucky enough to have tickets to see Iris and Tucks in the Gallier Hall parade stands. Kid was marching in Tucks and we made a banner. It was great to be back in the heart of NOLA.

07/13/2024 - first time visiting this small park with stone like pathways for cycling, jogging, rollerblading/rollerskating, running, skateboarding through, and walking. There are some nice grassy areas for picnicking. Nice tall trees that serve as functional decor shielding from the sun rays. There are also some wrought iron benches throughout the small square. There is a statue of Henry Clay(Hart, 1863) that is positioned in the center of the area. Nice and clean area that welcomes all to visit. Limited nearby parking available and for a fee. Enjoy!

I love this little park. It make me feel like I’m in the middle of a big city.

I ended up visiting the park by happenstance because there was a Day of the Dead, Día de (los) Muertos celebration happening. There were food vendors, art design craft tables that you could buy from and live music. It was the perfect place for the celebration.

We stopped by here for the Dia de Muertos celebration, it's a very nice space.
