After Henry Longfellow’s death, his children established an association to preserve the view from the House to the Charles River and created Longfellow Park.
Today there is no longer a view from the House all the way to the river due to the abundance of trees that have grown up.
The park also created a view from Mount Auburn Street towards the House.
Longfellow Park is managed by the city of Cambridge and the abutting property owners including Longfellow National Historic Site, the Latter Day Saints church, and the Cambridge Friends Society.
The bronze bust of Longfellow is in front of a marble relief depicting significant characters from his work, including Miles Standish, Sandalphon the angel, the Village Blacksmith, the Spanish Student from Tales of a Wayside Inn, Evangeline, and Hiawatha.
Festive dedication ceremonies were held in 1914 with many members of the Longfellow family attending.
