Park tidbits

Did you know that a park in Ward 4 is dedicated and named in honor of a Tuskegee Airman? In 2019, City Council renamed a Glennon Heights neighborhood park as the James E. Harrison Park at the request of residents to honor Harrison’s years of service to the Lakewood community through his work on the city’s incorporation and leading his homeowners’ association and neighborhood watch program.

Each park's webpage provides more details about the park, so use the park list to find out more about the parks you visit as part of the Mayor's Park Challenge.
