Description




This fairly small strip of a park honors Captain Gerald MacDonald, a World War I veteran and former Forest Hills resident. Despite its compact footprint, the space serves as a daily neighborhood hub featuring lawns, a playground, and plenty of seating. It is a popular spot for quick lunch breaks, and the trees draw residents for birdwatching and spotting squirrels—with the occasional red-winged blackbird making an appearance.
