About

This 172-acre park is centrally located in the county and a perfect spot for group picnics. Acquired in 1926, the park was originally called Woodlands Park, but was renamed for V. Everit Macy, the first Commissioner of Public Welfare. In fact, he was the first Westchester County Commissioner of any kind.
