We love our neighborhood and everything it offers.
There's a lot to do here. With very walking friendly streets, parks, a playground, fishing a school, nearby access to boat ramps, shopping, and more. Your neighborhood is a great way to pass the time.
The park is located on the East side of 14th Street North between 73rd Avenue and 75th Avenue North. This park offers a large pond, and plenty of greenspace to enjoy outdoor activities, including a playground that’s perfect for St. Petersburg’s younger residents.

Lynch Lake Park is quite popular with our residents and offers a serene spot to enjoy an afternoon outdoors with family and friends.
Our neighborhood association got involved when the area was only minimally maintained and advocated successfully to have this under utilized area become an official part of our world class St. Petersburg city parks system. Now it’s a favorite place for many people to come and enjoy life outdoors.
There are six lakes in Meadowlawn: Lake Laguna, Lynch Lake, Mastry Lake, Meadowlawn Lake #2 , Meadowlawn Lake #3 and Viking Lake. Lake Laguna, Lynch Lake and Viking Lake are controlled by the tides. The lakes feed into Turner Creek, a canal, that runs along 77th Avenue North and flows into Riviera Bay.
Lynch Lake, Mastry Lake and Viking Lake are opened to shoreline fishing from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The lakes are usually stocked with bass, bream, catfish and Nile perch.
