• Flood Park - Menlo Park CA
    Flood park "was added in the 1930s. Under the direction of San Mateo Counter Planner Ronald Campbell, WPA (Works Progress Administration) workers transformed a windswept grainfield into a beautiful urban park. Campbell designed Flood Park in the style of early California ranch buildings, using adobe brick to create the caretakers cottage,restrooms, and administrative office building. This park soon became a popular place for locals to picnic and play."
