I recently had my wedding here and it was perfect!! The gardens are beautiful and well kept. The pavilion is nice, there are outlets, trash and recycling, and 4 large picnic tables. The grill is rusted out on the bottom.The bathrooms are sub par.

Gorgeous trail and memorial with outdoor exercise equipment that is accessible to the public. It does have a lot of foot and bike traffic, even in the cooler months.

Beautiful trailhead for the MKT with a nice garden and MLK memorial as well as a historic building. There is also a robust array of outdoor fitness equipment. The parking lot is large and can handle increased traffic.

A beautiful little park located near the MKT trail in Columbia Missouri. There are nice plants and a neat memorial with blue tile to celebrate all of Martin Luther King’s legacy.

Nice shaded part of the Katy trail to walk or ride bikes. It's great as it gets hotter out because the shade helps keep it cooler.

It's a beautiful garden, it's kind of small. It's a great link to the MKT trail though with downtown to the north and some of the best trail to the south.
