American Park, Park in Polanco, Mexico City, Mexico

American Park, also known as Parque América or Parque de las Américas, is a public park on Avenida Horacio in the Polanco neighborhood of Mexico City. It features wide walkways, shaded seating areas, and a fountain at each end of the space.

Parque América lies in Polanco, a district that was still farmland with cedar-lined streets when the park was laid out in the mid-20th century. Its name refers to the independence movements led by Simón Bolívar and to the founding of the Organization of American States in 1948. The park holds a bust of Pedro Domingo Murillo donated by Bolivia and a statue of Paul P. Harris, founder of Rotary International.

The park sits in the heart of Polanco, one of the most recognizable neighborhoods in Mexico City. Busts and statues inside it, including a gift from Bolivia and a tribute to the founder of Rotary International, give the space an international character that visitors can notice while walking through.

The park runs along Avenida Horacio and is easy to reach on foot from the surrounding streets of Polanco. Several other green spaces are nearby, making it a good starting point for a longer walk through the area.

The Monument to Christopher Columbus, removed from Paseo de la Reforma in 2020, was expected to be placed here in 2022, but it was later decided to relocate it to the National Museum of the Viceroyalty in Tepotzotlán. The park instead holds a bust of Pedro Domingo Murillo, a gift from the government of Bolivia, and a statue of Paul P. Harris, founder of Rotary International.
