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

This park is named for Hugh W. Wallace, the city councilman responsible for getting the property allocated as a city park.

A search of the park and school yard will reveal a curious collection of 11 bronze objects, created by artist Bill Will in 1998, tucked away in unexpected places. Another art installation in the park is a 1980 sculpture by Manuel Izquierdo called Silver Dawn. Izquierdo is professor emeritus of Pacific Northwest College of Art.
