Yes, the title is right. This is Ribeira da Lage, the small river that runs through the city. The shot was taken at Jardim Municipal, the downtown public park.
When I saw your photo on the thumbnail, I thought to myself, "JM must have taken a trip out to the country, instead of the urban and coastal scenes that are more common for your his site." I did a double-take upon seeing your caption about this being downtown. A nice oasis.
By the way, I have started a series of photos on my site from Tortuguero, although I cannot match some of the wildlife photos that you took there that are shown on your travel site.
We also have a small brook running through our town. Few people take time to really stop and notice it, but it's a little jewel. This photo captures your town's jewel beautifully.
It seems you surprised us all with the title of your post today. I enjoy the parks and gardens within a city ... they seem so much more precious in that context.

Wow, very unexpected! Beautiful JM!
It is a nice place.
I like the clear water of the river.
(water over there looks deep blue.)
Looks like a nice place to escape to and enjoy some quiet time.
Sweet. Every city needs a quiet corner like this.
You know, JM, I'm constantly amazed at the beauty that is omnipresent in your community!
It looks like a peaceful space in the heart of the city.

Lovely place. Could have been in the countryside.
So beautiful. A pretty retreat right in the middle of town. MB
