This park, named for the founder of the city of Lee's Summit, is located on the original depot grounds which were set aside for railroad use when the town of Strother was platted on October 28, 1865. The town of Strother was later incorporated as the city of Lee's Summit on November 4, 1868.
The park was planned by the Missouri Community Betterment Committee of Lee's Summit, was financed by the Jackson County legislature, local clubs and individuals and is for the enjoyment of all who visit it.
