Farnsworth Park restoration begins this week

Since the Charles S. Farnsworth Park opened in 1934, it has served as the center of civic, cultural, and social life for generations of Altadenans. The park’s upper and lower ball fields — popularly called “The Hill” — has been the primary home venue of the Central Altadena Little League. Four permanent pickleball courts and several tennis courts have regularly hosted community-wide competitions. The outdoor basketball courts have been the site for local three-on-three community tournaments, pickup games, and youth sports skills camps.
