"Douglas Park, a serene oasis in an amazingly convenient location off Wilshire Boulevard, is the Westside’s go-to family park. There's plenty of free and metered parking, lawn bowling—it’s a thing—a fenced-in sandy playground with a seating area for snacks and strollers, perfect picnic spots, tennis courts, and the beloved cement rink for skateboards, scooters, and bikes. Don't miss the duck pond; its charming bridge and fairytale setting draws you in, while the turtles, Koi fish, and ducks are all natural-born entertainers." - Mel Kaspin Blume
