Now has HUGE bust sculpture of President Eisenhower out front that can be seen from the hwy. Drive around behind frontier village into the park area to see a old very large tower (used to be a water tank).
- Park with ruin type pillars - north side of the old TMC. Park in parking lot
across the street from the old TMC and walk into the park on the north east
section of the parking lot. There is a pavilion type area back there that has
columns made from the old Denison railroad bridges, with a brick floor made of
the old hand made bricks that used to line Denison streets. There is a plaque
that tells the history of it all. Take your camera! This place makes awesome
pictures.
