HISTORY

Condemned "for park and playfield purposes" in 1927, the park boasts the first "modern" (concrete) tennis courts, which were built in 1930. The shelter house was a project of the Works Progress Administration, built in 1938. Recent play area improvements were spearheaded by a local community group.
