Anderson Park is a public park in the city of Redmond, Washington.[2] The site was acquired in 1928 as Redmond City Park before being expanded and improved through the economic response of the Federal Works Progress Administration in 1938.[3] The park was given its present name in 1946, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[4][5]
The official name of the park is Albert Anderson Memorial Park, often shortened to Anderson Park, or referred to by the original name of Redmond City Park.[2] Albert Anderson was key to the modern redevelopment of the park through his community work regarding park projects and volunteer coordination.[2] The main features of the park include a set of two cabins formerly used for public events and services, formerly hosting the Redmond Senior Center and various other city administrative offices prior to the development of city hall.[2]
