St. Joseph Parkway, Historic parkway system in St. Joseph, Missouri.
The St. Joseph Parkway extends for 26 miles through the city, connecting major parks and recreational facilities with paved walking paths and hiking trails.
Landscape architect George Burnap designed this parkway system in 1918, making St. Joseph one of the first US cities with a complete parkway plan.
The parkway system serves as a central location for community gatherings, fitness activities, and annual events including the St. Joseph March for Babies.
Visitors can access multiple recreational spots along the route, including Phil Welch Stadium, Bode Ice Arena, Krug Park, Hyde Park, and Remington Nature Center.
The 983-acre system incorporates Renaissance design principles in its layout, featuring routes along Northwest, Northeast, Corby Grove, and Southwest Parkways.
