In late March, this guided tour offers a transitional view of the park as it begins to awaken from winter—revealing subtle signs of the coming growing season alongside the structure, form, and design that shape the landscape year-round. We’ll explore Highland Park’s rich history, thoughtful planning, and the landscape elements that make it a living work of art in every season.
