In honor of the Centennial of Founder’s Day in Cleveland, on July 22, 1896, famous Cleveland son John D. Rockefeller, donated the wooded acreage that we all now call Rockefeller Park.
Upon this land are located the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. This park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places twice: once for the cultural gardens, and again for its historic bridges.
Let us take a moment to fondly remember the illustrious man who made it all possible.
