"Broadway Park History
In 1906, the Bellingham Bay Improvement Company was building houses on adjacent land and donated this wetland area to the Park Board. Local residents used a pond on the site for swimming, fishing and ice skating. Development of the park began in 1913: in the 1930s a bowling green and clubhouse were constructed; in the 1940s, the pond was filled; in the 1960s lights from downtown were placed around the park; in the 1970s rest rooms were built; and in the 1980s the park was renovated.
