Description:
Fairmount Park in Riverside, California, is a historic urban park designed in the early 20th century by the famed landscape architecture firm of Olmsted Brothers, sons of Frederick Law Olmsted, the designer of New York City's Central Park. Opened in 1911, the park was part of a city beautification effort and reflects the naturalistic design principles of the Olmsted firm, emphasizing harmony with the surrounding environment. Over the years, the park has become a beloved community space, featuring Lake Evans, picnic areas, and recreational facilities, while maintaining its historic charm.
