In 2021 Springfield's Parks Department marked its 200th anniversary that began with the acquisition of Court Square in 1821 and continues to add to its hundreds of acres of land and water for public use. Court Square was sold to the then town of Springfield for $3,000 with the provision that "it never be encumbered with buildings or appropriated for other use other than public common." This first open space was the beginning of an exemplary parks system that thrives to this day.Springfield is a city of parks. There is the crown jewel of Forest Park with its hundreds of acres,baseball diamonds, lakes and ponds, a zoo, ice arena, renown festival of lights at Christmas time, the Environmental Center for Our Schools, miles of trails and picnic spots, beautiful gardens and the Barney Carriage House and much more. It is truly one of the oldest (1884) and best parks in America.
