Then & Now

gorilla cage

Above are pictures of the gorilla cages once used when Benson Park was home to Benson's Wild Animal Farm.  They have been cleaned up and transformed from a neglected and vandalized structure to a safe area for visitors to reminisce.

Below is a PowerPoint slideshow by the Benson Park Committee describing their mission, vision and progress restoring some of the historical structures at  Benson Park and preparing the space for passive use.

Then & Now describes the transformation the park has taken over the last century
