The Sunnyside Conservatory was built circa 1898 by William Merralls next to his home at 258 Monterey. After the removal of the building's east wing due to an accidentally issued demolition permit in the 1978, it was purchased by the city and became a park in 1980. The structure had long been deteriorating, and was restored in the 2000s, with a grand re-opening held in 2009.
