They are also called vest pocket parks, a term fi rst used in the 1960’s. Pocket parks are urban open spaces on a small-scale and provide a safe and inviting environment for surrounding community members. They also meet a variety of needs and functions, including: small event space, play areas for children, spaces for relaxing or meeting friends, taking lunch breaks, etc. Garfi eld Elementary School fi rst-graders Lian (at right) and Christopher Peres told ASK + Principal Sara Cohen that they’d like to see butterfl ies, monkey bars and slides at the park. Successful “pocket parks” have four key qualities: they are accessible; allow people to engage in activities; are comfortable spaces and have a good image; and fi nally, are sociable places: one where people meet each other and take people to when they come to visit. 425r Broadway, Saugus Located adjacent to Kohls Plaza Route 1 South in Saugus at the intersection of Walnut Street We are on MBTA Bus Route 429 781-231-1111 We are a Skating Rink with Bowling Alleys, Arcade and two TV’s where the ball games are always on!
