[1] The park is in the Town of Tonawanda, northeast of Buffalo, New York.
Access is free and it is open to the public year-round.
The park was established in 1926 with the county's purchase of 40 acres (0.16 km2) of formerly private land, and was expanded in 1936 and 1937 through the annexation of county tax foreclosures.
The park's facilities and landscapes were improved substantially by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) throughout the 1930s.
