History
El Dorado West is the home of the Parks, Recreation and Marine Department administration offices. The offices began in a renovated home on the property when the City purchased it. The Park Department moved here in 1962 and expanded in 1976. In September 1970, a library opened at the park. The majority of the park includes a golf course with restaurant and banquet facilities opened in 1964. The golf course was remodeled in 2004 and the restaurant in 2006. The park includes six baseball diamonds, several picnic areas, two playgrounds, a 15-court tennis center, two basketball courts, and a skateboard park, that opened in 1999. Finally, the park includes a community center, including a teen center called the Ram Shack, and a large multi-purpose area. A senior program wing was added in 2002 with reading room, two activity rooms, and a conference room and volunteer office. The park benefited from the Los Angeles County Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond Acts of 1992 and 1996 with new playground equipment, refurbished baseball diamonds including sports lights and backstops, and the senior center addition to the community center.
