The park was originally the backyard of the artist created the sculptures between the late 1940s and his death in 1963. After his death a neighbor purchased it and it was in danger of being sold to be replaced with Condominiums. The daughter-in-law of the artist purchased an option to buy the garden portion, obtained donations to help with the purchase and eventually it was given to the city of Salt Lake. It was finally opened as a City Park in 2000. As it was originally a backyard, it's very difficult to find if you don't have the actual address. There is a small sign marking the narrow pathway between two residential homes into the park. I find it a very peaceful contemplative place.
