In Washington D.C., one can see garish, outlandish, as well as impressive memorials and statues to about every historical person in American history. But what one doesn't expect is a tiny park dedicated to an American entertainer, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, and a former mayor of Palm Springs. That is unique. Unlike other public locations in Washington D.C., there is no fanfare for this place. No fancy statue or sculpture, not located near the Mall, and generally not featured as a tourist destination. In fact there are two obscure museums within blocks of this park that probably get more attention.It is at the triangular junctions of New Hampshire Avenue NW, O Street NW, and 20th Street NW. in a lovely neighborhood. It itself is a small triangle of land, modestly fenced, with a small opening in the fence to access the park, and a small bench. There is a medallion in a cement setting at the entrance identifying it as being dedicated to Sonny Bono. To say the least, by D.C. standards, this place is humble, but says a lot about whoever arranged for its existence, given the price of real estate in D.C.

Very small park with a few plants growing and 7x seats. Not much to go out of your way for but might be a nice place to sit after a long walk

Just a little triangle of fenced off space near an intersection. A place to sit if you need one. Just go to say you've been if your a fan.

Would be nice in the summer to sit smd take a break and watch the cars go by on all sides. Its basically a traffic island with a little fence, some flowers and a few benches to sit and reflect.

I went there walking up and down the street missing it a few time. The Sonny Bono Memorial Park is just a small corner street park located where 20th Street and New Hampshire Avenue meet below DuPont Circle. No sing and a few pushes (granted it is in the cold weather). A side from a small plaque on the ground dedicated to Sonny Bono. There is nothing to see or to talk about it. If you are in the area. especially in summer, stop by. It might be a little better.
