ADA Accessible Restrooms
The City of Hyattsville has partnered with Throne Restrooms to install environmentally friendly, ADA-accessible public restrooms at Hyattsville's Driskell Park, Heurich Park, “The Spot,” and 38th Avenue Park.
Follow signage on the restroom to access it by scanning a QR code or texting a keyword. Community members without phones can access the bathrooms by using a key card, available for pick-up at the Hyattsville City Building.
Community Gardens
The City has two Community Gardens, in Hyatt and Heurich Parks, that offer plots for residents to grow their own plants and produce. These gardens are run and maintained by separate community garden groups. If you'd like to learn more or apply for a plot, please contact the garden leadership directly.
