The McKean Arboretum recognizes the many contributions made to the City of Winter Park by one of the City’s most prominent families, Hugh and Jeanette McKean. The arboretum is located in the City’s picturesque park along historic Park Avenue adjacent to the City’s municipal golf course. The Arboretum is a cooperative effort between the City of Winter Park and the Morse Genius Foundation. The many flowering trees of Central Florida, known to be a favorite of Mr. McKean, dominate the design of the arboretum. The arboretum features a bricked fountain courtyard, a croquet lawn and a relocated historic bench in memory of the City’s prominent art collector and contributor to the City, the Morse family. MSI provided full design services from master planning, landscape architecture through construction administration.
