History​​​

Ann Arbor's city parks sit on the ancestral and traditional homelands​ of several indigenous Native peoples. Read a land acknowledgement​​ from the city and learn more a​bout the early history of the land here.​​

The land that is Waymarket Park was dedicated to the city of Ann Arbor by Beztak Apartments and ​Signature Housing in 1988 to create park space for nearby residents. The park's playground was built in 1993 and more improvements were made in 1998.​
