Conway Park

The Conway Rec Center (formerly Conway Heights Playground) is adjacent to the Sun Ray library, between Ruth and Howard and between Conway and Wilson.

Eastview Recreation Center

The Eastview playground and rec center is between Margaret and 5th and between Flandrau and Kennard.

Birmingham Pond

This stormwater pond is located on the south side of Minnehaha Ave, across the street from the post office.

Wilder Recreation Center

Not the best shot, I admit.

The Wilder playground and rec center is between Edgerton and Jessie and between Case and York.

Hazel Triangle

Charlie's in the middle of this triangle.

Located south of the Hazel-Ross Pond, west of Hazel, lies this moderate-sized traffic triangle. Nokomis and Bush are the streets forming the other sides of the triangle.

Devil's Ditch

This large open space north of East 7th Street and west of Birmingham was (I believe) once owned by a family named Van Kirk and was used as a dump for (mostly) clean fill, but being unsuitable for building has become part of the rainwater abatement system of the east side. "Devil's Ditch" is a local nickname for the area.

Hazel Place

Hazel Place was acquired by the St. Paul parks department in 1886, being the site of a train station that has been gone almost a century. It is where Ames Place intersects Flandrau Street and is about 0.03 acres southest of the train tracks.
