Jastro Park
Jastro Park is a public park located in Bakersfield, California. It was constructed on two square blocks of land at the corner of Truxtun Ave. and Elm St, in Westchester.
==History==
The park was created in 1917, on two square blocks of land donated by the Kern County Land Company.〔(Jastro Park ). City of Bakersfield Recreation & Parks. Accessed: 04-09-2010.〕 Most of the landscaping was initially donated by Henry A. Jastro in 1925, for whom the park is named. A plaque in the park marks this contribution. In 1927, Jastro also donated an outdoor amphitheater, designed by Charles H. Biggar. The Jastro Park amphitheater is one of three open amphitheaters in Bakersfield — the other two are at Beale Park in Central Bakersfield and Jefferson Park in East Bakersfield — and the only one not to have built in seating for the audience.
Since 1927, the park has seen many improvements. Two reservable picnic areas and several other individual picnic areas have been added. A pool was constructed, which was used by the Bakersfield High School swim team, as well as several outdoor sports courts.
In 2004, an aquatics center was constructed in downtown Bakersfield. Around the same time, many local pools in public parks, including Jasto Park, were in need of refurbishment. The city decided to remove the pool at Jastro Park instead of refurbish it. The pool was removed and replaced with a spray park.〔(Jastro Park Pool May Close ). KERO 23, Bakersfield. January 14, 2008.
