Druid Hill Park is not only Baltimore City's largest park, it's also her oldest—and one of the first public parks in America. Frederick designed many of the structures in the park, some of which are thought to be the oldest park structures in the nation. Frederick's many pavilions began life as way stations along a miniature railroad that once meandered around the park. The park has Friends of Druid Hill Park, which was created to protect and maintain its magnificent woods and arbors, to preserve its historic monuments and buildings, and to reinvigorate the park.
