Description
This park takes its name from a slave who in 1856 petitioned California for her freedom. She proceeded to open and run an orphanage out of her own house, and ultimately established LA's First African Methodist Episcopal Church on this very site. She acquired numerous parcels of land, in what is now downtown. Biddy Mason Park is a serene alternative to the usual hustle and bustle of LA.
