Did you know that Warinanco Park, one of Union County’s most beloved green spaces, was designed by the Olmsted Brothers—the same brothers who designed Central Park? Established in the 1920s, this scenic park (205 acres) has been a community favorite for generations, offering everything from walking trails and picnic areas to sports fields and stunning cherry blossoms in the spring. Whether you're taking a stroll or enjoying a weekend outing, Warinanco Park is a true local gem! Between late March and early April, you can also see the cherry blossoms there.
