Desiderio Neighborhood Park is located at Arroyo and Colorado Boulevard under the historic Colorado Street Bridge. This small neighborhood park is 3.8 acres and includes picnic tables, benches, restrooms, bike racks, playground equipment, passive meadow area, walkway lighting, 10 regular parking spaces, and 1 ADA parking space.

The Colorado Street Bridge was designed and built in 1912 at a total cost of $191,000 (equivalent to $4,934,907 in 2020). The structure carries Colorado Boulevard (then called "Colorado Street"). It is a major east-west thoroughfare connecting Pasadena with Eagle Rock and Glendale to the west, and with Monrovia to the east.

The bridge is on the National Register of Historic Places and has been designated a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers.

During the early part of the twentieth century, the Colorado Street Bridge became known locally as "Suicide Bridge" after dozens of people leaped to their deaths. The bridge had a bad reputation before it was even built, as a construction worker fell to his death and landed in the wet cement under the bridge.
