Parchester Park

Parchester Park is a 2.1-acre community park located in the Parchester Village neighborhood of Richmond, California. The park serves as a central gathering place for local residents, offering a variety of recreational facilities and open spaces.

The park features a community center, which provides a space for neighborhood events and activities. Adjacent to the community center is a playground area where children can enjoy outdoor play equipment. For those seeking relaxation or picnics, the park includes a designated picnic area and expansive lawn spaces.

Parchester Park caters to sports enthusiasts with its basketball court and baseball field, allowing for both casual play and organized games. The park also includes a parking lot for visitor convenience.

In recent years, the park has been the site of community improvement efforts. In 2019, volunteers and city leaders came together for a "build day" to work on the Mary "Peace" Head Memorial Garden within the park, demonstrating the community's ongoing commitment to maintaining and enhancing this local green space.
