History

Ann Arbor's city parks sit on the ancestral and traditional homelands of several indigenous Native peoples. Read a land acknowledgement from the city and learn more about the early history of the land here.

The first plot of the land that became Windemere Park was acquired by the city in 1972. In 1979 construction of the subdivision, known as Earhart Knolls, was approved. Part of this agreement was that the developer would dedicate some park land to be added to the existing Windemere park. This addition formed the park boundary as it is today. The Glacier Highland Homeowners Association helped develop the master plan for the park and donated some improvements to the park. The park was officially dedicated in 1982.

Recent Developments

In 2014, a plan was approved to move the existing tennis courts to their current location, after the old courts had been showing signs of age.

In response to a resident request, Parks and Recreation hosted a public survey in August 2022 for community input on adding one or two soccer goals in the Park. Thirty residents responded to the survey, with 83% responding that they supported adding 1-2 soccer goals. Given the survey results, the project is placing one soccer goal facing east.
