Nestled in the heart of West Carson, Wishing Tree Park is more than just the first public greenspace in this unincorporated community - it’s a symbol of resilience, vision, and collective action. Spanning 8.5 acres, the park stands as a tribute to decades of grassroots advocacy, transforming a long-neglected site into a vibrant sanctuary for play, reflection, and connection. From its inclusive design to its culturally resonant features, Wishing Tree Park reflects the dreams of generations who fought for equity, access, and beauty in their own backyard.
