About Mathews Park
Mathews Park is a 28.7-acre park around a lake, about 1.7 miles northeast of downtown Monroe on East Marable Street. Opened in 1974, it was fully redone in two phases starting in 2020, and today people come for the playground, fishing on the restocked lake, picnics under the pavilions and the John Reid Memorial Disc Golf Course.
