גן העשרים
ריכרד קאופמן תכנן את הגן הציבורי היורד ממעלה השכונה, אל מגרש הספורט שתכנן בעמק ציון (כיום כביש בגין). ציר סימטרי במרכזו, שבילים ופינות ישיבה משני צדדיו. הצמחייה בגן ארצישראלית ירוקת עד ומתאימה לאקלים המקום. הגן נקרא בפי כל "הבולוואר" או "הגן הציבורי" והיה למקום משחק לילדי השכונה ומקום מנוחה לאורחים. עם קום המדינה וצירוף בית הכרם לירושלים, נקרא המקום "גן העשרים" לזכר עשרים מבני השכונה שנפלו במלחמת העצמאות ושמותיהם חקוקים במצבה, שעיצב האמן בן השכונה, זאב רבן.

THE PARK OF THE TWENTY
Architect Richard Kaufmann designed the park with two symmetrical parts and a central path descending the hill, with vegetation typical to the region. After the establishment of the State of Israel, it was named the Park of the Twenty, to commemorate twenty local residents, killed during the 1948 war. Their names are engraved on the tombstone, designed by the neighborhood resident, the artist Ze’ev Raban.
