== Description == The park is divided in two by [[Wilshire Boulevard]]. The southern portion primarily consists of a lake, while the northern half includes an [[amphitheatre]], [[bandshell]], soccer fields, and children's playground, along with a recreation center operated by the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks. The bandshell was once home to many organizations and events, such as [[Jugaremos en Familia]] (a live event hosted by [[Memo Flores]] for the Hispanic community). Public artworks installed in the park have included the [[MacArthur Monument (Los Angeles)|MacArthur Monument]], ''Entry Arch'',<ref>{{Cite web |title=Entry Arch, (sculpture). |url=https://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&profile=ariall&source=~!siartinventories&uri=full=3100001~!319041~!0#focus |access-date=2022-09-18 |website=Smithsonian Institution}}</ref> ''[[Statue of Harrison Gray Otis|General Harrison Gray Otis]]'',<ref>{{Cite web |title=General Harrison Gray Otis, (sculpture). |url=https://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&profile=ariall&source=~!siartinventories&uri=full=3100001~!942~!0#focus |access-date=2022-09-18 |website=Smithsonian Institution}}</ref> the Hungarian Freedom Fighters Memorial,<ref>{{Cite web |title=Hungarian Freedom Fighters Memorial, (sculpture). |url=https://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&profile=ariall&source=~!siartinventories&uri=full=3100001~!319036~!0#focus |access-date=2022-09-18 |website=Smithsonian Institution}}</ref> ''MacArthur Park Singularity'',<ref>{{Cite web |title=MacArthur Park Singularity, (sculpture). |url=https://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&profile=ariall&source=~!siartinventories&uri=full=3100001~!318931~!0#focus |access-date=2022-09-18 |website=Smithsonian Institution}}</ref> ''Mine Was the Better Punch, But It Didn't Win the Wristwatch'',<ref>{{Cite web |title=Mine Was the Better Punch, But It Didn't Win the Wristwatch, (sculpture). |url=https://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&profile=ariall&source=~!siartinventories&uri=full=3100001~!337149~!0#focus |access-date=2022-09-18 |website=Smithsonian Institution}}</ref> and ''[[Prometheus Bringing Fire to Earth]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Prometheus, Bringing Fire to the Earth, (sculpture). |url=https://siris-artinventories.si.edu/ipac20/ipac.jsp?&profile=ariall&source=~!siartinventories&uri=full=3100001~!937~!0#focus |access-date=2022-09-18 |website=Smithsonian Institution}}</ref> Previously, the [[statue of Charles III of Spain]] was installed in the park.
