Pine Avenue Park
Pine Avenue Park is a well-used community hub located just south of Carlsbad Village along Harding Avenue in Carlsbad’s Barrio neighborhood. The existing park includes a Senior Center, Parks and Rec. offices, basketball courts and play fields, a community stage, picnic and lawn areas. Key entries are punctuated with a series of mosaic tiled sculptures depicting flower species historically grown as part of Carlsbad’s floriculture industry. Underlying the park’s formal organization is the idea of overlaying the orthogonal agricultural geometries on the more organic and flowing forms of the coastal bluff.
As part of the completion of the Pine Avenue Park master plan, two new park features are being designed including a multi-generational Community Center at the northeast corner of the site and Ornamental and Community Gardens at the southwest corner.
