Over the years, the tiny Berkeley neighborhood park that is now named for the labor and civil-rights leader has put tax dollars to good use by re-sodding the grass, planting trees, upgrading and maintaining the playground and establishing new areas for basketball, hopscotch and, amazingly, some sweet concrete ping-pong tables. But it's the bocce courts that get us psyched to pétanque-a-donk-donk. The two concrete pits lined with crushed gravel make for some competitive weekends and leisurely weekdays of play. Once you've worked up an appetite, pack up your balls and head down Tennyson's restaurant row.
