History
Lake Park was laid out in 1889 along the route of the newly completed Georgia Southern and Florida Railway. It was originally named Lawrence after its founder, Lawrence A. Wisenbaker. However, the name Lawrenceville was rejected due to the existence of another town with the same name in Georgia. Subsequently, in April 1890, it was renamed Lake Park in reference to the numerous lakes surrounding the original town site. The Georgia General Assembly officially incorporated Lake Park in December 1890.
