Water Works Park, Water park in Tampa, US

Water Works Park is a public park along the Hillsborough River in Tampa, Florida, reopened in August 2014. It holds an open lawn, a children's splash pad and playground, an amphitheater and a dog park, and a section of the Tampa Riverwalk runs through it. A memorial garden honors Clara Frye, and the restored Ulele Spring flows freely into the river.

The site was redeveloped and reopened to the public in August 2014 as part of the Tampa Riverwalk project, which runs along the Hillsborough River. The Ulele Spring was restored to flow freely into the river, and a memorial garden honoring Clara Frye was built in the park.

The park's memorial garden honours Clara Frye, a nurse who ran a hospital for Tampa's Black residents when they were barred from other facilities. The Ulele Spring, restored to flow freely into the Hillsborough River, carries a name tied to the Tocobaga people's legendary chief. Visitors pass both on the Riverwalk stretch.

The park runs along the Tampa Riverwalk beside the Hillsborough River, so it can be reached on foot or by bike along the river path. The open lawn, splash pad, playground, amphitheater and dog park sit close together, and the Ulele Spring flows into the river within the grounds.

Ulele Spring, restored to flow freely into the Hillsborough River, runs through the park; the site is named for the waterworks that once stood here. A memorial garden honours Clara Frye, a nurse who ran a private hospital for Tampa's Black residents.
