Lents Park is a in southeast Portland, Oregon's Lents neighborhood, United States. The park was acquired in 1914. The park is home to Charles B. Walker Stadium, and has a new playground to replace one built in the 1970s.
Lents Park was the site of at least one Black Lives Matter demonstration in 2020.
In April 2021, a man was shot in Lents Park by the police that responded to multiple calls about a man with a gun in the park. A replica gun was recovered. The Oregonian reported the man is a white male in 30s and commented that they don't normally disclose the race unless there is relevance, but provided an explanation that it came in the middle of several high-profile police involved shooting of black males.
