Editorial Review for Eleanor Tinsley Park – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
With its sloping hills and lush trees, this park is a great place to relax. Picnic tables are sunken into some of the hills to make for a unique setting. Some are also covered, which is handy in case of a sudden downpour.The layout of this park makes for some interesting strolls. It's set along Buffalo Bayou and is adjacent to the Bayou's scenic ArtPark (featuring a host of sculptures and other art pieces).
