Bell Park is a charming 1.15-acre public park within Houston's Museum District, located along Montrose Boulevard. The park, which was deeded to the city by C.C. Bell in 1967 and opened to the public three years later, is a popular spot for nearby office workers to enjoy lunch outside and for families visiting nearby museums to picnic and enjoy pick-up sporting games. Beautiful lush landscaping shades the park, which is anchored around a central fountain. The park is also home to a seven-foot bronze statue of Christopher Columbus, erected in 1992 as part of the 500th anniversary celebration of the European exploration of North America.
