Kings Park

Kings Park is a neighborhood in Springfield.

The 1100 homes in the neighborhood were built in the early 1960's by the Richmarr Construction Corporation. The first 5 model homes constructed by Richmarr in the neighborhood were opened on July 8, 1961. Sales were handled by Routh Robbins, and by September of that year 150 homes had been sold.

As part of the development, 9 acres was set aside by Richmarr to become the Kings Park park, construction of which began in November, 1961.

By September 1962, 350 homes had been sold in Kings Park, and an additional neighboring tract of land was purchased, expanding the original 442 homes planned for the neighborhood to over 1100.

The neighborhood is served by the Kings Park Civic Association. The Kings Park Library and Kings Park Shopping Center are nearby.
