Eleanor Tinsley Park is a section of Buffalo Bayou Park in Houston, Texas. 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.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Buffalo Bayou Park )〕 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)〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Houston, Texas (TX) Zip Code Map - Locations, Demographics - list of zip codes )〕 and has a nebulous shape, its street address is difficult to define. The City of Houston may list the address as 1800-3600 Allen Parkway/Memorial Drive, 77019.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Buffalo Bayou Park )〕 Alternatively, the City may list the address as 500 Allen Parkway, 77002.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=City of Houston E-Newsletter )〕 The City lists the park's San Felipe playground as 1717 Allen Pkwy, 77019.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Our Parks O - Z )〕 The City lists the park's Lee and Joe Jamail Skatepark as 103 Sabine Street, 77007.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Lee and Joe Jamail Skatepark )〕 The western border of the park is Taft Street. Its eastern border is Sabine Street.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Buffalo Bayou Park )〕 The northern border is Memorial Drive. Its southern border, Allen Parkway, is frequently closed due to parades, road running, and racewalking.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=City of Houston Parade and Street Functions )〕 The park hosts the Free Press Summer Fest annual music festival, the Houston Art Car Parade, and the Freedom Over Texas annual 4 July celebration.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=2011 Freedom Over Texas Home Page )〕 In the past, the park hosted the Bob Marley Festival〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Bob Marley Festival - Page 1 - Music - Houston - Houston Press )〕 and "The Westheimer Street Festival in Exile". ==References== * * * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eleanor Tinsley Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
