This cache is a part of a series to recognize Lincoln Parks young and old, well known and hidden.
Welcome to Antelope Park (South)! This compelling, beautiful gateway was erected in honor of William Thomas Auld. Auld donated all the land that encompases Antelope Park to the city of Lincoln on the first of July in 1915 purley for park purposes. The plaque recognzing his generous donation is on the southwest side of the west column.
Antelope Park is unofficially recognized in three sections...
North: known for the Lee Ball Fields this area also includes the Fiske & Meginnis Muny building built in 1921 and was listed as a historic site in 2014.
Triangle: holding several of Lincoln's public gardens including Sunken Gardens which was recognized by National Geographic as one of the 300 best gardens in the U.S. and Canada
South: Technically encompases Memorial Park as well as holds the Shildneck Bandshell, The Veterans Memorial Garden, Auld Pavillion, the largest playground area in Lincoln, and Nebraska's replica of the Liberty Bell.
With the Lincoln Children's Zoo to the northwest, Normal Boulevard bordering the northeast, and the the Billy Wolff Trail and Rock Island Trail running throughout, this park is truly a gem of the 100+ parks in Lincoln.
