We want to hear from you about your experiences at Lower Presidio Historic Park including feedback about operations of the park.

Please take the Lower Presidio History Park Operations Survey

The Lower Presidio Historic Park is a unique partnership between the City of Monterey and United States Army Garrison (USAG) Presidio of Monterey to provide open access on a historic park site. The park and facilities on the Lower Presidio are leased to the City by the USAG, and the City provides groundskeeping maintenance and museum services. For over 25 years, the City and USAG have worked together to provide public park access and a free, public museum for the community. The Museum and Lower Presidio Historic Park were created by a partnership between the City of Monterey and the Presidio of Monterey during a process of Base Relocation and Closures (BRAC) in the 1980s and 1990s. Currently the Presidio of Monterey Museum is managed by the Museums Division of the Library and staffed by volunteers. An interpretive plan was implemented in partnership with USAG, City of Monterey, and Old Monterey Foundation, with signage throughout the park to tell our Monterey stories.

Please tell us about your experiences at Lower Presidio Historic Park along with feedback about operations of the park through this survey.
