A truly one of a kind park! You may have heard about the many wonderful ceramic sculptures here and may be confused as you pull into the parking lot. Thee is a path just to the right of the baseball field that will bring you right to it! “La Laguna de San Gabriel” or “Monster Park” was created in 1964 and was out on the National Registry of Historic Places in 2017. Benjamin Dominguez made the sculptures at the age of 70, which was his final project. Even despite Covid, it’s fun to visit just to take in the slides even without riding them. There was virtually no one in this section of the park when we were there. A must visit!

Named after the last parks supervisor, Vincent Lugo Park is a beautiful oasis in the city. A lot of shrubs, vines, and trees that are indigenous to the Alhambra wash were planted and maintained. It has a well used dirt walking trail that is well used.
For adults wanting to stay in shape, they have different types of equipment to strengthen arms, legs, and midsection. While these are not powered, some even offer limited cardio building capabilities.
They have at least two public restrooms and working drinking fountains. Children playground equipment also exists. Finally, a baseball field with backstop, scoreboard and lights exists. At 191' to the right and left sidelines, it is suitable for high school or little league.
This is a clean park that is well maintained. I was surprised not to see any homeless here.

Consolidated park experience offers a break from urban shopping street noise and litter. Immediate access to quiet residential streets to the north and, across a road to the west,a larger recreational park.

Vincent Lugo Park is famous for its dinosour, dragons and theme play area for kids. It is not a big size park but it has enough sitting areas for family gatherings. It has a baseball field and now a walking trail. I love the new little workout machines that you can use for specific body parts and they are placed throughout the park.
