Dora Colón Clavell Urban Park, Urban park in Barrio Primero, Ponce, Puerto Rico
The park spans a landscaped area with walking paths, shaded gardens, and a central stage for outdoor performances at Marina and Jobos Streets.
The park opened in December 1995 on the former site of Hospital Damas, with construction costs reaching 11 million dollars under Mayor Churumba's administration.
A Mudéjar-style kiosk, reminiscent of an 1882 structure from the Feria-Exposición, hosts regular performances by the Ponce Municipal Band every Sunday.
The facility includes an underground parking garage accommodating 400 vehicles, with a tourist police station located on the upper level for security.
Named after Dora Colón Clavell, mother of former Puerto Rico governor Rafael Hernández Colón, the park features food stands and a restaurant for visitors.
