Wading Pool Update PP&R has closed its wading pools for health and safety reasons, as required by new State of Oregon regulations. In 2002, an inventory and assessment of wading pools was completed. Based on those recommendations, as well as input from maintenance and planning staff, PP&R has identified 17 wading pools for replacement and 7 for elimination. Please read the FAQ for more information.
Historical Information
Berkeley Park was purchased as part of a 20-acre neighborhood tract in 1941 with funds from a 1938 tax levy. Housing was developed except for a 6.5 acre tract which was designated for a potential park. In 1946, Park Superintendent C.P. Keyser thought Berkeley was too costly to develop. With three sides already having housing, it was thought the area would best be used for additional housing. The neighbors disagreed and petitioned for the property to be developed as a park. The neighborhood succeeded and Berkeley Park was developed.
