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.​​

Development plans for the surrounding neighborhood began in 1989. The developer agreed to set aside some land for a city park as part of the site development agreement. The park was not ready for development until 1999, as grading and other work, including clearing space for the playground​, had to take place.​​
