Located on Heights Boulevard at 18th Street, Marmion Park is the original location of the Cooley mansion, one of the first houses built in Houston Heights. The house was demolished in 1965.  The land sat vacant until 1979 when it was purchased by the Houston Heights Association for the purpose of constructing Marmion Park, named in honor of the last mayor of Houston Heights, J. B. Marmion. The park's award-winning Kaiser Pavilion was designed to emulate the Cooley home's unique turret.  This beautiful, tree-lined park and large gazebo are extremely popular for wedding ceremonies.
