Peter Detmold Park is located at what was the eastern most edge of the Beekman Farm, built by merchant James Beekman (1732-1807) in the 1760s. His mansion, “Mount Pleasant,” was located near what is now East 51st Street and First Avenue and was notoriously used as British headquarters during the Revolutionary War. Patriot spy Nathan Hale was purportedly tried and sentenced to death in the property’s greenhouse. The Beekman family ultimately sold the property during the 1850s cholera epidemic, and the mansion was later destroyed to make way for the city street grid. Parks acquired the property for Peter Detmold Park in three parts between 1942 and 1951. The original parcel was only used for maintenance and operations purposes, but the site expanded in 1951 during the acquisition of land to create the East River Drive (now known as Franklin D. Roosevelt Drive). Whatever land was not used for the roadway, was added to the existing parcel and became public parkland.
