Exterior photograph of the Denver Public Library's Woodbury Branch Library located in Historic Highland Park in Denver, Colorado. Like Montclair Park, Highland is a good example of a small multi-use park laid out in the English landscape tradition. The plantings incorporate a sophisticated mix of plant material, including a few plains cottonwoods planted as street trees in the early 1900s. Construction and planting of the park took place between 1907 and 1910.
