The Space -- Originally designed by the much-respected Frederick Law Olmsted, Washington Park is named for the nation's first president. Today, along with several historic buildings, the urban park has baseball, tennis, and swimming facilities, as well as a fitness center. A playground and plenty of paths for jogging and biking also provide opportunity for recreational fun, and city festivals often grace the park as well.
