Otis Park

Historic Roots

Located in the Midtown neighborhood of Wichita, Kansas, Otis Park is a charming pocket of greenery spanning just 0.54 acres. Sitting at the crossroads of North Market Street and 13th Street, this little oasis traces the path of what was once a bustling railroad line.

The park has quite the historical pedigree - it was originally owned by L.W. Clapp, who, while representing City Manager, sold the land to Wichita in 1907. This little transaction earned Otis Park its place as one of the oldest parks in Wichita's park system.

A Green Retreat

Despite its modest size, Otis Park delivers a refreshing dose of nature for the surrounding residential area. With thoughtful plantings and landscaping, it offers a lovely natural setting right in the heart of the city.

You'll discover this green space ideal for unwinding after a long day, getting in some light exercise, or simply enjoying a bit of outdoor time away from the hustle and bustle.

Neighborhood Connection

The Wichita Park and Recreation Department keeps Otis Park in good shape as part of the city's collection of neighborhood green spaces.

Its central location makes it an easy-to-reach retreat for many Midtown residents looking for a quick nature fix without venturing far from home.
