Centennial Park
Centennial Park is a shady greenspace built around the tallest tree in Olympia.About
Centennial Park was established in the spring of 1989 to commemorate Washington's first 100 years as a state. The focus of the park is the tallest tree in Olympia, a coastal redwood tree that's over 100 years old. The park's founders pledged to maintain the park as a natural area and keep it centered around this tree. The State Capitol Committee issued a proclamation naming the coastal redwood tree the Daniel J. Evans Tree in honor of our environmental governor.
