George Van-Leeuwen Park

George Van-Leeuwen Park is a Washington Terrace city park at 125 East 4475 South in Weber County. (Some map listings spell the name Van-Leewen; the city spells it Van-Leeuwen.) Vehicle access is from 4475 South, and Washington Terrace Elementary sits just southwest of the park.

Rather than a separate park play structure, the city notes that the school's playground equipment doubles as the park's playground equipment. According to the city, recent construction at the park added three water detention basins, a brand-new walking path and many trees, so it suits a short neighborhood walk. The city's park listing does not mention restrooms or a pavilion.

Washington Terrace lists George Van-Leeuwen Park as one of its six city parks, along with Rohmer, Wright, Lion's, Victory and Senior Center Park. The city itself grew out of a World War II temporary military housing project of 1,396 two-bedroom homes and was incorporated on December 12, 1958, according to its history page. Nearby Lion's Park (375 East 4700 South) and Victory Park (275 East 4400 South) are other Washington Terrace options within a short drive.
