Mill Creek (Bakersfield)
Mill Creek is a linear park located in Bakersfield, California. It runs along the Kern Island Canal between Golden State Ave. and California Ave. in downtown, although there is a gap between 19th St. and the BNSF railroad yard. The center of the park is Central Park, the only park in downtown. The park contains a lake with spray fountains and the “Mill Creek” bridge. It is also home to the Bakersfield Museum of Art and the Bakersfield Community House.
The park is named after a flour mill which was located on 17th St.〔Mayer, Steven. High hope grows where the water flows. The Bakersfield Californian. March 14, 2010. A1, A6-A7.〕
==History==
Central Park was created in August 21, 1921. The same day, a bid was accepted from MacRori and McLaren Company for its construction. Originally called Stark Park (for about one month), the name was changed to Central Park since the park was located in between Bakersfield and East Bakersfield. In 1938 the first foot bridge was constructed over the canal. In 1956, part of the land was used for the Cunningham Memorial Art Gallery (later became the Bakersfield Museum of Art). A camellia garden was added in 1956 in memory of Aram Adams (who was a local automobile dealer). In 1964, another section of the park was used for the establishment of the Community House.〔(Rehabilitate Bakersfield Right ). Bakersfield Historic Preservation Commission. Accessed: 03-28-2011.〕
In 2001, city planners started to consider how to redevelop the area. After years of planning, and raising funds, the Mill Creek project was born. The plan was to create a linear park which would run along the Kern Island Canal. The canal would be altered to look like a natural stream. A path would be created next to the canal, on the old access roads.〔 The plan also called for the redevelopment of Central Park (which the canal ran through). This included constructing winding paths, replace lighting, and expanding the canal to a lake. The bridge across the canal was replaced with the covered “Mill Creek” bridge.〔(Central Park at Mill Creek ). City of Bakersfield Recreation & Parks. Accessed: 04-03-2010.〕 The park reopened in 2009. The rest of the linear park opened in 2010.
