Opened to the public in 1966 Edgerton Park was bequeathed to the City by Frederick Foster Brewster whose estate was named Edgerton because of its proximity to the city’s edge. While the main house was demolished as directed by Brewster the carriage and gate house, gardens and greenhouse remain.
The property is maintained in cooperation with the Edgerton Park Conservancy who also staff its Garden Center sponsoring lectures, workshops and maintaining its horticultural reference library.
