| Franklin Steele Square |

 One of the oldest parks in the Minneapolis park system, Franklin Steele has a fresh new look featuring two playgrounds—one for the 2-to 5-years old, one for those between the ages of 5 and 12; an eight-table picnic shelter, a bathroom and pool utility building, a splash park, picnic tables, benches and grills.
The park had been closed since 2006 when all of the outdated and deteriorating facilities including the pool, playground equipment, bathroom building, and picnic facilities were removed. Construction of improvements began in August 2008 and the grand-reopening was held June 13, 2009.
Historical Profile: More information about this and other parks is included in Parks, Lakes, Trails and So Much More, a richly detailed account of the histories of Minneapolis’ renown recreational system.
