The smallest park in the world?
Mill Ends Park’s designation as such is pretty dubious if you ask me. See, Portland, back east we’d call that a “planter.” At least Salem’s Waldo Park has a tree, and you can walk around in it. If it weren’t for the pachysandra.
On the other hand, Mill Ends does have a nice backstory involving leprechauns, and made the news a few days ago, when it was moved back to its original location. Here’s some pics of the occasion.
And it seems to be the Madonna of parks, changing its flora with the fashions. Sometimes it has a cactus, sometimes it’s a bit more bonsai-ish, sometimes it’s more like a failed Chia pet.
