View Full Version : The smallest park in the country? Fleet 09-12-2012, 01:20 AM I always laugh when I pass by this park. On a tiny portion of land on two busy streets. I would guess that is measures about 60 feet long by 45 feet wide. Park is located in Porter Ranch in the San Fernando Valley. Here are some photos. The last one shows the "park" from across the street. Schmoopie 09-12-2012, 06:55 AM Not to outdo you at all, but Mill Ends Park in Portland Oregon is billed as the world's smallest park. I've been to Portland a million times but I've yet to see this park for myself. Hard to believe that something so small could be considered a park! I do like the pictures you posted. It looks really nice and peaceful! http://img.cultura10.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/raros2.jpg http://365thingsportland.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/22.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_Ends_Park D-Dey 09-12-2012, 10:09 AM Not to outdo you at all, but Mill Ends Park in Portland Oregon is billed as the world's smallest park.
