Park
The history of The Parklands began in the 1890s with Olmsted’s Louisville parks system, but his vision sprouted for a new century with the posing of a simple question: What can the present generation do that would have the same impact on Louisville as the Olmsted Generation? With Louisville’s boundaries extending well beyond the existing necklace of Olmstedian parks and parkways, 21st Century Parks, Inc. was founded in 2004 to build a park system that would serve the city’s residents by preserving the last undeveloped piece of Jefferson County.
