“Triangle Park” they called it back then. Now it’s L C Bandel Park. Today, we honor a man who dedicated his life to this city.
L C Bandel Park might seem like a simple grassy patch. It’s more than just a park. This space is a tribute to a man named Louis C. Bandel. He was a dedicated city maintenance worker.
Imagine Louis tending to Coronado’s streets. He ensured its beauty for years. This small park at Alameda and Tenth Street bears his name. It is a reminder of his service.
It’s true L C Bandel Park doesn’t boast a playground. There aren’t any restrooms either. It is a place for simple pleasures. You can exercise or walk your dog here. Kids can play catch on the grass.
This park is also known as Triangle Park due to its shape. It occupies about 16700 square feet. That is just .37 acres. It’s a small space with a big heart.
Benches offer a spot to sit and reflect. Consider the countless hours Louis Bandel spent working here. His efforts helped shape Coronado.
While alcohol is not permitted at Coronado Parks, you are welcome to bring a picnic.
The park has a large grassy area. So this is a good place for physical activity.
L C Bandel Park may lack modern amenities. Its true value lies in its tribute to community service. Louis C. Bandel’s legacy lives on in this park. It is a quiet corner dedicated to a man who cared. This space is a reminder of the importance of every role in our city.
