The City of Carlsbad officially opened its newest park, a 3-acre spot in northwest Carlsbad with ocean views, a playground, wide grassy hills and more than 30 species of native plants. Buena Vista Reservoir Park was built at the site of a former water reservoir that neighbors long hoped could be repurposed for a neighborhood gathering place.
