History of Chickasaw Park
Designed in 1923, Chickasaw Park is believed to be the only park in the country created by the Olmsted Firm for the Black community during segregation. The park is home to the West Louisville Tennis Club; the picturesque Chickasaw Pond and river views; and is known as Muhammad Ali’s favorite park.
