Glen Park, Williamsville, New York, Public park in Williamsville, United States
Glen Park is a public park featuring interconnected ponds, walking paths, and open green spaces adjacent to Glen Falls on Ellicott Creek. The grounds offer playgrounds, picnic areas, and parking for visitors.
The land housed Harry Altman's Glen Park Casino and Amusement Park until fires in 1968 and 1973 destroyed the complex. Following this loss, the land was converted into public parkland.
The site once hosted the Glen Casino, where major entertainers performed before it became a music venue. This transformation from entertainment complex to public park still shapes how locals remember the place.
The park is accessible year-round and works well for families with children and waterside relaxation. Wear sturdy shoes for the walking paths and bring a camera for photos near the old mill.
The park contains multiple duck habitats within its pond system and offers photography spots near the inactive Williamsville Water Mill. This old mill remains a popular backdrop for wedding photos despite its deteriorating state.
