History
The land that would be Rockhill Park was donated by the Fort Wayne Commercial Improvement Company in 1908. It was originally stipulated that the land that was formerly the Rockhill family's farmland would come into possession of the Parks and Recreation Department only if its home area of Westfield were ever to be annexed by the City, which it eventually was.
