The old Armstrong depot which was a station before Maple Plain was, had been moved to Maple Plain's Main Street and became the house Mott Vanderwarker and his mother lived in for years. When the village bought the land and built the village hall, the old Vanderwarker house was unoccupied and deteriorating. The Maple Plain Garden Club enlisted the help of several of the businessmen and had the house razed and the land filled and graded. They seeded grass, bought and planted shrubbery, had a table and benches built, and are planting flowers in season and maintaining it as a village park which all are welcome to enjoy.
