Hopkins Park (Cincinnati)

Hopkins Park is a small 0.895-acre (0.362 ha) urban park in the neighborhood of Mt. Auburn, Cincinnati, Ohio.[1]

The land was donated by merchant Lewis C. Hopkins on January 18, 1866 on the condition that the park "forever be kept free of buildings, and ... should be tastefully laid out and planted with trees and shrubbery".[2][3]
