Owned by the City of Dallas and managed and maintained by Parks for Downtown Dallas, Carpenter Park is a neighborhood park located on the eastern edge of Downtown, near Deep Ellum and East Dallas. Carpenter Park is the largest park in the urban core at nearly 6 acres.

The park showcases two significant pieces of public sculpture. Robert Irwin’s Portal Park Piece (Slice) has been reconceptualized and retitled by the artist for the new site conditions in the renovated park. The new title of the sculpture is Portal Park Slice. Robert Berks’ statue of John W. Carpenter has been refurbished and reinstalled.
