[edit] Third-largest urban park?

It's not the third largest park at all! Swope Park, in the larger neighboring big city in Missouri, Kansas City, is about 1,900 acres-- making it bigger than Forest Park. This statistic is wrong and I am removing it.

Off the top of my head, I can think of three urban parks that are larger:

  1. Franklin Mountains State Park in El Paso, Texas: 24,247.56 acres
  2. South Mountain Park in Phoenix, AZ: 16,283 acres
  3. Memorial Park, Houston, Texas: 1,466 acres

There may even be more, but it appears that Forest Park is not the third largest. Ufwuct 00:00, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

There are in fact more parks in the U.S. that are larger than Forest Park.[1] Ufwuct 00:04, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
Don't compare state parks to city parks, it defeats you. DaronDierkes (talk) 01:42, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
