History of Sendall Gardens
In 1974 the City of Langley purchased the property
that is now Sendall Gardens. The park is named
after Ernie Sendall who was the first elected Mayor
of Langley City, holding office from 1955-1959.
Bill Huebener was the Parks Foreman at that time
and it was his creative vision that led to the design
and
development of the park.
In 1996, the gardens received an upgrade. Aging
wooden timbers were replaced with tumbled stone
and
the duck pond was enhanced, still retaining the
rustic charm that the garden is known for.
The Tropical Greenhouse at Sendall Gardens was
originally built in 1982. It was designed by
Bill Huebener and constructed by the parks staff.
Mr. Huebener was an avid gardener and he brought
back many exotic plants from his various travels.
After 20 years the wooden structure of the greenhouse
deteriorated and was scheduled for demolition. In
2002 a dedicated group of local neighbours calling
themselves the “Friends of Sendall Gardens Greenhouse” stepped forward to raise the necessary
funds for a new
greenhouse. They convinced City Council to build a
new glass structure around the excisting specimen
plants. They continue to be involved with educational tours for students and visitors.
The Communities in Bloom Committee (CIB) saw
the popularity of Sendall Gardens and they were
inspired to create a new space in the park suitable
for photographs and small wedding ceremonies.
Through the fundraising efforts of the CIB, the
Legacy Garden is available to be booked for these
special events.
