ABOUT BEVERLY GARDENS PARK

Beverly Gardens Park was developed in 1907, consisting of three blocks on the north side of Santa Monica Boulevard between Crescent Drive and Rodeo Drive. In 1930, the park expanded eight blocks west along Santa Monica Boulevard, to the intersection of Wilshire Boulevard, wrapping around to Whittier Drive. It also expanded twelve blocks east along Santa Monica Boulevard to Carmelita Avenue, bringing it to our park of today – 23-blocks or 1.9 miles of green space, which features highly visible landmarks like the iconic Beverly Hills Monument Sign and Lily pond, the historic Cactus Garden, the Electric Fountain, the Doheny Fountain, and the Alta Arden Pergola Garden.

The Beverly Gardens Park Restoration Project is a multi-year renovation project intended to restore the 100+ year old park to its original condition using historic design elements, while modernizing it with current trends in park design to bring it into the 21st century.
