Who was Albert Volz?

Sorry, this is not an investigative blog.  The link is below, but the guy did some some amazing things for the community – including coming up with Northwest Highway.  He also owned an opera chair factory in town, so he probably deserves a bigger park.

Here is a Daily Herald article from 2011

While his impact on the town was great indeed, I am more concerned with this nice little park tucked behind the city’s post office that bears his name.  This park also wins the award for coolest park sign. first, it set back from the road when approached from the south.  Second, it was built to withstand all a hurricane.
