Montrose Park, Public park in Georgetown, United States.
Montrose Park spans sixteen acres on elevated ground, featuring tennis courts, trails, a playground, and boxwood gardens overlooking Rock Creek Park.
Robert Parrott, a ropemaker and factory owner, purchased the land between 1804 and 1813, constructing a ropewalk that remains present in the park.
The park holds a commemorative armillary sphere monument honoring Sarah Louise Rittenhouse, who led the initiative to preserve this land for public use.
Visitors can access twelve amenities including benches, picnic tables, flush toilets, trash receptacles, and drinking water throughout the grounds.
The park maintains a 500-foot historic ropewalk structure from 1804, representing an early industrial element within Georgetown's landscape.
