History

The park was created by the developers of the Montage Beverly Hills hotel.[3] It has landscaped gardens (including sycamores, topiaries and tulip trees), walkways with colonnades on each side, and dining tables.[2][3][4] The fountain in the center was handcarved in Israel.[4]

In the summer, the city organizes 'Concerts on Canon', a series of weekly concerts, as well as Sunday Movie Nights, both of which take place in the park.[5] In September 2014, the city screened Troop Beverly Hills, a movie set in Beverly Hills.[6]

In August 2014, 400 residents who took part in the "Walk with the Mayor" program celebrated Mayor Lili Bosse's birthday in the park.[7]
