Originally part of the huge Mount Clare estate owned by the 18th century barrister Charles Carroll, Carroll Park is one of the oldest parks in Baltimore. During the Civil War, the park was the site of Camp Carroll. In 1890, the city bought 20 acres from the estate to form Carroll Park, and they hired the Olmsted Brothers to design a master plan. Based on their recommendation, the park was build respecting the historic aspect of the west side of the property while providing facilities for sports on the east side. Today, Carroll Park has a range of athletic fields, an outdoor skating facility, a kids’ playground, a natural area, a skateboard park, and a nine-hole golf course.
