Flavel Park

Flavel Park is a public green space located in Portland, Oregon's Brentwood-Darlington neighborhood. Acquired in 1953, this 4.20-acre (1.70 ha) park offers residents and visitors a variety of recreational opportunities in a suburban setting.

The park is named after Captain George Flavel, a seafaring man who was active in early trade with Portland and lived in Astoria. He was notably the first pilot licensed to navigate the Columbia River bar.

Flavel Park features flat terrain and is surrounded by residential areas. It provides a peaceful environment for outdoor activities and relaxation. The park is open daily from 5:00 AM to midnight, allowing visitors to enjoy the space throughout the day.

For those interested in organized sports, the park includes a soccer field that can be reserved for games or practice sessions. Families with children can take advantage of the playground equipment, providing a safe and fun area for younger visitors to play and socialize.

The park's paved paths offer opportunities for walking, jogging, or casual strolls, making it a convenient spot for local residents to engage in light exercise or enjoy nature within an urban setting.
