Fredenhagen Park honors Grace Towsley Fredenhagen and Walter S. Fredenhagen, who together created the Prince Castles and Cock Robin ice cream companies. The park stands on the site of the original ice cream shop and manufacturing facility that thrived from 1931 to 2000, making famous ice cream creations, especially its "One-in-a-Million" milkshake. Through their civic involvement, Grace and Walter Fredenhagen also made a significant impact during the early formation of Naper Settlement and Edward Hospital. The park was given as a tribute to the spirit and generosity of parents by Ted Fredenhagen and Rita Fredenhagen Harvard.
