Lake Wales Heritage is deeply engaged in the replanting of the 1930 Lake Wales streetscapes designed by famous landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. shortly after his completion of the gardens at Bok Tower. Edward Bok funded the original design. Heritage also hosts educational programs for both adults and students to share knowledge of the historic resources.
