Washington Jefferson Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Washington Jefferson Park is a 21-acre urban public park in Eugene, Oregon, United States.[1]
In fall 2020, the city of Eugene began allowing homeless people to create encampments in the park, and in October 2021 about 200 people lived there.[2] In February 2022, the city opened a new indoor Safe Sleep site and told the residents they needed to be out of the park by mid-March. Then the city closed the park for renovations and it reopened in June 2023.[3]
