Holland Park Draws Visitors, Now Viewers With Sky Camera

HOLLAND, Mich. (WWJ/AP) -- A western Michigan park known for its historic windmill, carousel and seasonal tulip fields is ready for its close-up. Or zoom-out. Or 360-degree pan.

The Holland Sentinel and The Grand Rapids Press report Monday that the city of Holland recently installed and launched a sky camera at Windmill Island Gardens. The camera provides images that are livestreamed online and allow for users to control the view, at least for now.

The camera was installed in time for Holland's annual Tulip Time festival in May. The city is known for its Dutch heritage.

The Windmill Island camera is one of three Holland has installed around the city. Two more are planned later this year.
