CLASSIFICATION: Park Pioneer Park exists at the busy intersection of Broadway Blvd and
COUNCIL DISTRICT: 4 Westport Rd. With its proximity to restaurants and shopping, this park

Central
PARK DISTRICT: shows evidence of frequent foot traffic. Overall, the park and monument
appear tidy, though litter was present in several areas. People were
ESTABLISHED: 1987 actively camping/loitering at the time of assessment, creating a less
ACREAGE: .17 acres welcoming environment to anyone that may wish to visit the park. The
park provides a pleasant, educational stop for visitors. Due to lack of
amenities and its small size, this park is unlikely to be a good source for
PARK AMENITIES revenue. Additional investment in this property is unwarranted.
