From the Renton City Website:
Liberty Park is Renton's oldest park facility. The 12-acre park was purchased from the Sartori family on July 14, 1914, and was first known as "City Park." This name was later changed to "Liberty Park" to commemorate World War I. Liberty Park has continued to be the City's major park and playfield area. It also serves as the venue for the Renton River Days celebration.
