The park is named after Ernie Sendall who was the first elected Mayor of Langley City, holding office from 1955-1959. Bill Huebener was the Parks Foreman at that time and it was his creative vision that led to the design and development of the park. In 1996, the gardens received an upgrade. Aging wooden timbers were replaced with tumbled stone and the duck pond was enhanced, still retaining the rustic charm that the garden is known for. The Tropical Greenhouse at Sendall Gardens was originally built in 1982. It was designed by Bill Huebener and constructed by the parks staff. Mr. Huebener was an avid gardener and he brought back many exotic plants from his various travels. After 20 years the wooden structure of the greenhouse deteriorated and was scheduled for demolition. In 2002 a dedicated group of local neighbours calling themselves the “Friends of Sendall Gardens Greenhouse” stepped forward to raise the necessary funds for a new greenhouse. They convinced City Council to build a new glass structure around the excisting specimen plants. They continue to be involved with educational tours for students and visitors. The Communities in Bloom Committee (CIB) saw the popularity of Sendall Gardens and they were inspired to create a new space in the park suitable for photographs and small wedding ceremonies. Through the fundraising efforts of the CIB, the Legacy Garden is available to be booked for these special events.
