For over 30 years, this site served as the Orlando Naval Training Center and was "home" to thousands of service personnel known as "Blue Jackets". In 2000, the City of Orlando designated 75 acres of this historic site as a public park to serve its citizens with a special place for reflection and physical renewal.
