Hollis Park, constructed on the site of a former quarry, is evidence of the Council's wish to beautify the City while providing recreational amenities. It has historic significance for its former use running horses and access to South Beach, and for its associations with the marine/boat building industry in the South Fremantle area; it has social value for the local community.
This place is an extension of Wilson Park. See South Beach entry.
