“Urban” Park Named Iron Horse Park

During the Logansport’s Board of Public Works meeting, Mayor Martin requested the Logansport Parks Board to take the responsibility for their department to manage the perpetual care, operations and maintenance of Iron Horse Park.  During the Logansport Parks & Recreation Board meeting, on Wednesday, August 14th, the Parks Board honored that request.  

The newly named “Iron Horse Park” will be added to the inventory of parks managed by the staff of the Logansport Parks Department.  The following amenities are available for the community:

•    Additional downtown parking, including ADA accessible parking 

•    ADA accessible walkways and drinking fountain;

•    Game Court with cornhole, and soon to arrive, foosball table, & table tennis table;

•    Green space with plenty of room for gatherings, and soon to be installed lighting & electricity for vendor booths and the Cass County Community Foundation Community Stage;

The Iron Horse Depot is now ADA accessible from the south entrance (along Melbourne Ave) leading to a family-style restroom, that will be open daily during regular park hours from 6 a.m. – 10 p.m.   The Iron Horse Depot with historical displays and full-service restrooms will be open only during public events, such as the Farmer’s Market, and special events like Summer Sundown Music Series and the upcoming Oktoberfest on September 7th.
