This park was dedicated to Pompano Beach pioneer Annie Adderly Gillis on October 29, 2011. Annie was a Pompano Beach resident for 77 years during which time she was very active in the community through her church and many civic organizations, People in the community are still benefiting today from her contributions. For many years this was a passive park without any amenities. The space became an eyesore on the corner. The Community Redevelopment Agency stepped in and redesigned the park to give it purpose. In November 2022 the park was reopened with new paved walkways, a water fountain, and outdoor exercise equipment. The project cost 1.4 million dollars. Now the park can be used by the community for fitness and events like food truck nights. It is also the site of the annual Light Up MLK holiday event where Annie Adderly Gillis lit the very first tree. This park is just one part of the CRA's efforts to revitalize this part of Pompano Beach. It is already beginning to look better. They are off to a great start beautifying downtown and making it better for the community. The park is finally worthy of Annie's legacy.
