“espinades” ????????????
I have no clue what that is...so I guess, no we don’t!

Although Boston has an outdoor theater called the Esplanade where they hold Fourth of July Fireworks. Is that what you meant?

An esplinade is a grass strip barrier between two trafficways. It might be a grass strip between a road and a canal, or a road and a sidewalk or in between 2 roads such as a median area. Used in the Southwest, probably Spanish in origin.
