Review & FAQ:

Houston's Memorial Park is one of the United States' largest urban parks, originally opened in 1924 on the site of the former United States Army training base Camp Logan. Today, the 1,466-acre public park is located in Houston's Memorial neighborhood and is dedicated to the memory of fallen American soldiers. It is home to the state's highest-rated municipal golf course, the 18-hole Memorial Park Golf Course, which was redesigned in 1936 by John Bredemus and has hosted the PGA Houston Open more than a dozen times. Softball, tennis, volleyball, swimming, and croquet facilities are also available for public use, along with cycling trails and the 2.93-mile Seymour Lieberman Exercise Trail. The 155-acre Houston Arboretum & Nature Center showcases botanical garden areas, while a picnic loop area offers soccer and rugby fields and day-use picnic areas.
