Since we have such an amazing system of parks, I thought I'd look for some park photos on Flickr to share with you.

From the Cincinnati Parks website:

The City of Cincinnati parks system has been rated 'excellent' by the Trust for Public Land. USA Today ranked Cincinnati Parks as one of the top three urban park systems in the United States. We have five regional and 70 neighborhood parks and 34 nature preserves, as well as parkways and neighborhood gateways. We maintain Cincinnati's Street Tree program on 1,000 miles of City streets. The parks system operates five nature centers, an arboretum and one of the larger public plant conservatories in the country. Our public art collection is the Midwest’s largest. Add it up, and Cincinnati Parks manages more than 10 percent of city land.
