Remembrance Park is a green oasis welcoming the public into the thriving Downtown.
The signature features include Clayton’s first living green wall, a tranquil waterfall, public WiFi compliments of the Mid-County Library, and chess tables with engagement offered by St. Louis Chess Club. A bicycle repair station and fountain allows cyclists to recharge on their journey.
About Remembrance Park
Located adjacent to the Mid-County Library at 7811 Maryland Avenue is Clayton’s twelfth public park and is designed by SWT. As the second Downtown park, it serves as a landmark that embodies the community, culture, and flavor of Clayton.
Visitors will be drawn to the park, where they can experience the wonder of the living green wall, reflect under the shade of the tree canopy, or remember Clayton’s icons through the historical plaques.
“The new park will be a great addition to Downtown Clayton. Next door to the Mid-County Branch, patrons will have the opportunity to take materials to the park and read outdoors. We also look forward to partnering with the Clayton Community Foundation on literacy-themed programs.
