Gloria Molina Grand Park (Est. 2012) is a dynamic and expansive public space nestled in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. This 12-acre urban oasis serves as a central gathering point for the city’s residents and visitors.

This park is named after Gloria Molina, a former Los Angeles County Supervisor who played a critical role in the development of the park. The park covers 12 acres up the east side of Bunker Hill and is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike.

Grand Park’s design offers a harmonious blend of green spaces, pathways, and interactive features, creating a welcoming environment for people of all ages and backgrounds. The park features amenities such as:

Performance Lawn: A spacious area where various cultural and musical events are held throughout the year. It serves as a stage for concerts, dance performances, and community gatherings.
Community Terrace: This elevated section provides sweeping views of the city skyline and serves as a great spot for relaxation and contemplation.

Fountains: Grand Park boasts a series of interactive fountains, including a splash pad that’s especially popular with children during hot summer days.
Civic Lawn: A lush, open green space where people can relax, have picnics, or simply enjoy the outdoors.
Event Spaces: The park includes various event spaces and plazas that host a wide range of activities, from cultural festivals to yoga classes.
Art Installations: Grand Park often features temporary and permanent art installations that add to its cultural and aesthetic appeal.

Gloria Molina Grand Park has four distinct areas featuring amenities ranging from the restored historic Arthur J. Will Memorial Fountain with a wade-able membrane pool,

a small intimate performance lawn, a community terrace planted with drought-tolerant specimen plants representing the diverse cultural make-up of Los Angeles itself, and a grand event lawn.

Gloria Molina Grand Park allows for a strong visual and physical connection from Grand Avenue via a series of stairs, accessible ramps, and sloped walks as well as elevators to invite more pedestrians into a vibrant garden environment, a place to come together in a welcoming and distinctly urban oasis.
