Dr Anderson was the sole doctor at Wakatipu’s hospital from 1920 until 1950.
He was also an elected member of the Queenstown Borough Council for 27 years, including 15 as mayor.
Located off Windsor Pl on Queenstown Hill, the park has had a major upgrade funded by a bequest from Dr Anderson’s daughter, Prof Jan Anderson.
It now has a memorial plaque and weather vane, seating and new planting.
