Often referred to by locals as “Gonzales Hill”

An undeveloped natural area (1.99 hectare) in a residential neighborhood, accessible from Denison Road, with limited roadside parking and scenic views from a historical World War II lookout and from a historical marker cairn. There are unmaintained minor trails, not accessible by wheeled apparatuses, and some imperiled ecosystems that are under threat from invasive species in the park.

This park provides viewpoints from which to enjoy magnificent views of ocean, mountain, and the surrounding urban and waterfront landscape, as well as the opportunity to learn of the historical and conservation significance of the area via historical plaques
