Carlson Park

Carlson Park, located at the foot of Mt. Rubidoux at the historic entry to Riverside, features the St. Francis Falls with its matched pair of mission towers and the raincross balustrade that lines old Buena Vista Drive. The green space within the park now functions as a dog park. This renovation project will restore the raincross balustrade with its raincross lights and decorative pilasters, will renovate the entire parking area, adding lighting in the parking lot as well as throughout the park, and in a second phase, will restore the historic St. Francis Falls.
