Ridge Road Park History

Date Acquired:  1925

Acres:  236

Background:  The flat developed terrain of this park is ideal for group and family picnicking. It offers reservable picnic areas with a playground, pavilions, athletic fields, comfort station and lane parking areas. The undeveloped parts of the site are heavily wooded with trails. Portions of the park have historical significance because they were constructed and financed by the Works Progress Administration  (W.P.A.). One charmingly rustic single-story picnic shelter, for example, was built in 1942 by the W.P.A.
