What makes it fun
George B. Case donated land for a park to the city in 1944 on the condition that it be called Ermine Case, Jr. Park in honor of his father. Ermine Case, Jr. was born in 1841 in Columbus, Ohio and moved to Kansas City in the 1860s. He was a lawyer and real estate developer who died in 1886. A few more parcels of land were later purchased to complete this 1.67 acre park. The riverview from the park is beautiful and a perfect place for a romantic picnic.
