Landscaping & Trolley Tracks... The historic Parkway is ribboned with landscaped gardens, such as the one along the trail near Lovers Lane. Follow the trail and the traveler will cross the Parkway on a bridge once used by electric trolleys to crisscross the City.

Joining with More Trail... Once past the trolley bridge and landscaped garden, the traveler will make their way up a hill and find themselves at the monument dedicated to the poet Eugene Field, commemorating his famous piece about Lovers Lane. One can continue North on the trail from there, or turn around and return to the trailhead.
