Named in honor of former Federal Hill resident John O. Pastore, a former Rhode Island Governor and an influential U.S. Senator in the 1960s, this park has had a resurgence in recent years. A major renovation in 2014-2016 has turned it into vibrant green space for the Federal Hill neighborhood. It features a waterpark, playground, and basketball court adjacent to Zuccolo Recreation Center.
