Heller Park opened in 1969 and was named for Charles “Chuck” Heller, Costa Mesa’s first Superintendent of Streets (Public Works Director).  Costa Mesa originally secured the land as a maintenance yard at no charge in an inter-agency land swap with the (then) Costa Mesa County Water District.  Heller himself forwarded the concept of the land becoming a city park.
