During Indiana’s stay-at-home order, we will continue to bring you #PlacesofNEI but we ask that you use good judgment on staying home and practicing social distancing. Promenade Park remains open and we look forward to the day when we can all enjoy it in its full glory as we did during the summer of 2019. Promenade Park features the Parkview Tree Canopy Trail, a north dock for easy access to @fwoutfitters, the PNC Playground, Ambassador Enterprises Amphitheater, Convergence sculpture, Park Foundation Pavilion, @trubbleriverside, and much more. This park was built for everyone to enjoy. It’s a place where you can spend an entire day, feel connected to nature, and do it all at little to no cost. Built along the St. Marys River, the park is the launching pad for both kayakers and Sweet Breeze. The Parkview Tree Canopy Trail offers one of the best views of Downtown Fort Wayne any time of day. Free parking is accessible from areas all around the park. Designed for maximum accessibility with features such as gradual sloping walking paths and ramps, this park was built with a lot of love. #PlacesofNEI
