Sutherland Park is named after the Hon. John Sutherland (1816-1889), Secretary for Public Works at the time of the building of the railway.

He was Mayor of the Municipal Council of Sydney in 1861, and Member of NSW Parliament 1860-1889.

Named after Charles Wickham (1869-1936), local resident and skilled gardener.  Charles was the ‘guiding genius’ of the gardens on the Village Green at Artarmon Railway Station.  The gardens were first established by the Artarmon Progress Association in 1928. As a volunteer he made the gardens into his retirement hobby, eventually being employed by Council. During 1983-1990 three blocks of land in White Street were acquired by Council for open space in response to Artarmon becoming a more populated suburb. Landscape improvements were completed in 2007.
