Whitman Park is on the National Historic Register. It was restored with the oversight of the Friends of the Whitman Park beginning in Jan. 2000. The restoration was to the original landscape design of Frederick Law Olmsted, and did not take into account wheel chair access. The restoration effort was funded by a state grant and supplemented by selling 43 memorial park benches.
In 2003, the Mass. Historical Commission presented the Whitman Park Restoration Project a Historic Preservation Award.
