What is the Pasadena Heritage Park and the Pomeroy Homestead Museum?
The Pomeroy family donated their family homeplace to the City of Pasadena for historical museum purposes in December, 1986. This donation included two houses, two garages, one outhouse and nine city lots. Using Hotel-Motel tax money, the city is renovating the property for museum purposes. The property is now designated as the Pasadena Heritage Park and will include three interpretives structures and a new main museum facility. The W. S. Park’s “Strawberry House” was moved to the property in 2002 and the museum holdings will moved to a new modern facility for interpretation and preservation. A Master Plan was approved in 1999. The first phase of the Park opened in June 2000.
