Eleanor Tinsley Park

It was designated on April 20, 1998 in honor of Eleanor Tinsley, who served as a member of the Houston City Council At-Large for 16 years.

[1] The park houses the Lee and Joe Jamail Skatepark, the Shady Grove Victim Memorial, a Henry Moore sculpture entitled "Large Spindle Piece", the Houston Police Officers' Memorial, Glenwood Cemetery, the San Felipe playground, jogging trails, and a sand pit which can be used for volleyball.

Because the park straddles three ZIP codes (77002, 77007, and 77019)[2] and has a nebulous shape, its street address is difficult to define.

[5] The City lists the park's Lee and Joe Jamail Skatepark as 103 Sabine Street, 77007.

Its southern border, Allen Parkway, is frequently closed due to parades, road running, and racewalking.
