Dana Park, Urban park in downtown Albany, United States
Dana Park spans 0.2 acres at the intersection of Delaware Avenue and Lark Street, featuring green spaces and walking paths for outdoor activities.
The Common Council of Albany established the public square in 1826, later dedicating it as Dana Park on Arbor Day 1901 to honor geologist James Dana.
The Thursday farmers market during summer connects local producers with residents while promoting sustainable food practices in the Albany community.
The park contains multiple benches, a water fountain, and a Little Free Library book box for visitors to exchange reading materials.
The granite Dana Memorial displays carvings of trilobites and functions as the last remaining horse trough in Albany, restored in 1988.
