Parks and recreation

Briarwood Park is located on 461 Almaden Court, Los Angeles, CA 90077. This is a pocket park; it is unstaffed and open from dawn to dusk.[8] It also includes De Neve Square Park.[9] The city maintains a website for a Beverly Glen Park, and it appears on Google Maps, however the signage at the listed address clearly states the property is private, and access is exclusive to residents only. This discrepancy has not been addressed by the City of Los Angeles, despite being evident for at least 15 years (as of 2019.)

The community puts on a street fair each June and an annual garden walk and brunch.[1] In 2001, the Beverly Glen farmers market was founded.[10]
