McKinley Park

McKinley Park is a 6.949-acre neighborhood park located in the Franklinton community of Columbus, Ohio. The park was acquired by the city in 1926, making it one of the older public green spaces in the area.

The park is named after William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States, who was born in Ohio. This dedication reflects the state's pride in its presidential heritage.

McKinley Park offers a mix of recreational facilities and open spaces. The park features athletic fields, providing opportunities for local sports activities and community games. An open-air shelter is available, which can be used for picnics, small gatherings, or as a resting spot for park visitors.

For families with children, the park includes a playground, offering a space for younger visitors to play and exercise. Paved paths wind through the park, suitable for walking, jogging, or casual strolls.

The park is open daily from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., allowing visitors to enjoy the space throughout the day and into the evening hours.
