Edmundson Park Historic District, New Deal era park district in Oskaloosa, United States.

Edmundson Park Historic District is a 56.5-acre park in Oskaloosa, Iowa, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. Its 52 resources at nomination comprised four contributing buildings, six contributing sites, 19 contributing structures and three contributing objects, alongside non-contributing buildings, sites and structures. Landscape architect Ray F. Wyrick designed the grounds, and the park structures follow the rustic style the National Park Service promoted between 1916 and 1942.

The grounds were built between 1936 and 1938 by the Works Progress Administration, a Depression-era program. Funding came from a bequest left by attorney James Depew Edmundson.

The district features rustic structures designed by landscape architect Ray F. Wyrick that shape how the place looks and feels today. You can see this design approach throughout the grounds when you walk around.

The park is easy to access and offers pathways to explore the historic structures and surrounding grounds. Comfortable walking shoes are helpful since you will be on foot to see the different areas.

The 52 resources counted at nomination are not a collection of loose objects: they comprise four contributing buildings, six contributing sites, 19 contributing structures and three contributing objects, alongside non-contributing elements. City engineer Don Russell used the New Deal program to add value to Edmundson's bequest.
