O'Fallon Park is a municipal park in St. Louis, Missouri, that opened in 1908.[1]

Under Alderman John Collins-Muhammad the park underwent a million dollar remodeling including renovations on the historic O'Fallon Park Boathouse. The work is part of a three-year project including upgrades to park infrastructure and a fresh coat of paint.

Description

The park is named after John O'Fallon, a colonel who fought in the War of 1812 and nephew of William Clark.[1] The park is 126.63 acres and was once part of O'Fallon's 600-acre land holding.[1] The park has a lake with a boathouse.[1] It has basketball courts, tennis courts, softball fields, and a football field.[1] It has a playground, multiple picnic grounds, and a spray pool.[1]
