History
Ann Arbor's city parks sit on the ancestral and traditional homelands of several indigenous Native peoples. Read a

The park was acquired by the city around 1970. For years it was called the Woodbury Park Access, as it connected the Iroquois Place neighborhood to the Woodbury Gardens housing complex south of it. In 2004, after neighbors advocated for it, city council approved officially changing the park's name to Iroquois Park. Around this time improvements were also made to the park including a new path, bench and picnic table.
