The park located at 299 Parkside Avenue is the home of a large Civil War memorial. The monument was erected by the Mercer County Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument Association and funded by public subscriptions, for a total cost at the time of approximately $15,000. Alfred R. Baxter, President of the Alexander McDonald Company, was the architect and builder.











The park is also the home of the Swamp Angel covered in the previous post.
