Brown Park is a 3.68-acre linear park. The initial park was obtained by the City of Merriam in July 1975 and was named for Esther Brown, a local resident who organized citizen support for the 1949 Webb v. School District 90 case. This case set the background for the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education lawsuit. The goal of the City of Merriam to create a place that invites interaction between neighbors and visitors.
