The playground is very nice and was purchased with funds donated by the Cabot Corporation. So a big thank you to https://www.cabotcorp.com/company/worldwide-locations/north-america/usa-texas-pampa-manufacturing! The park also has a full court basketball court and a few picnic tables, some of which have grills. Sorry about the pictures. There were kids playing and I really didn't want the "creepy dude taking pictures" label today. [Review 16161 overall - 338 in Texas - 1667 of 2021.]

Another of the parks that follow Red Deer Creek as it wanders through Pampa, Mora Wilks Park is…read morepassive but has a nice smooth sidewalk that is ideal as a walking path though it doesn't loop. Top to bottom and back is maybe a half mile and while it's an easy enough flat walk, it's rather boring. The park does not have any active features though it is well maintained. I would have to guess that it is not a very saleable property due to the potential creek flooding, so turning into a park is a good thing. [Review 16149 overall - 327 in Texas - 1655 of 2021.]

As the trees are still green, I would suspect that it is much prettier in the Spring and Summer. There are no features here that I could see other than an open space that's good for walking or perhaps flying a kite. The ground isn't really level enough for a ballgame or any sort of organized sport. There is only street parking. [Review 16147 overall - 325 in Texas - 1653 of 2021.]

There is limited parking and the only features of the park are two benches, a trash can and an interesting piece of red/brown public art that has no label and no caption. The trees are shedding some bright red fruit (crabapples?) but the grass is otherwise tidy. [Review 16153 overall - 331 in Texas - 1659 of 2021.]

This small park commemorates Pampa's first resident doctor, Dr. Vittorio Emanuel von Brunow, who…read morewas generally known as Dr. Brunow. He was born in Charleston SC on October 27, 1862. His parents were Count Phillip von Brunow and Countess von Brunow. Count von Brunow was prominent in diplomatic circles in the services of Russia for many years. Count von Brunow's family returned to their old home in East Prussia in 1864. Dr. von Brunow came from Gainesville to the Texas Panhandle in a surrey. German, he had probably heard of the Thut family who were German-speaking Swiss, and he stayed at first in the Thut Hotel near Lefors. Soon after arriving in Pampa in 1903, Dr. von Brunow had a white frame building constructed at 101 South Cuyler. The von Brunows lived upstairs, and the lower floor was used as a doctor's office, drugstore, post-office and telephone office. Dr. von Brunow died on May 7, 1941, and was buried in Fairview Cemetery. He was survived by his wife and step-daughter and four children by a former marriage. The park is some of the greenest space in all of Pampa on this mid-October afternoon. There is a sculpture titled "Grandfather's Vision" that doesn't provide much context. There are also benches and a selfie station. Street parking is available here. [Review 16169 overall - 346 in Texas - 1675 of 2021.]
