From the Albany Guidebook of 1917:
Lincoln Park. — Formerly known as Beaver Park, but name changed in 1916; take Delaware avenue car. As far as improved, contains an athletic field, quarter-mile running track, swimming and wading pools, baseball fields, tennis courts, coasting hill, children's playground and suitable shelters and conveniences for the people. This park, which originally was the first open-air public playground for children, was secured as such by the Albany Mothers' Club and contains in its western section the spacious building once occupied by Dr. James Hall, the famous State geologist. It has been remodeled to better accommodate the great work which the Mothers' Club is conducting here. The improved park will be the out-of-door recreation center of the city. Contains 78 acres; was created by law in 1892; work began May 1, 1894; Jacob Leonard gave 19 acres for it May 30 that year.
