Ginny Reichard Park
About Ginny Reichard Park
A Little Urban Spot
Positioned in Louisville's Butchertown neighborhood, Ginny Reichard Park may be small (just 0.22 acres), but what it lacks in size, it makes up for in charm. Established in 1949, this pocket park acts as a little breathing space amid the urban landscape.
The park bears the name of Virginia Anne "Ginny" Reichard, a passionate local activist who poured her heart into the Butchertown community. In 1981, the space was officially dedicated to honor her contributions - a fitting tribute to someone who cared deeply about this corner of Louisville.
What You'll Find Here
Don't let the compact footprint fool you - this park packs a surprising punch. Kids can burn off energy at the playground, while basketball enthusiasts can shoot some hoops on the basketball court.
In a nod to modern needs, the park offers WiFi access, so you can check emails or post that perfect park selfie without using your data. And when you're ready for refreshments, you're just steps away from neighborhood favorites like Ten20 Brewery and Hi-Five Doughnuts - making it easy to turn a quick park visit into a delightful afternoon outing.
Neighborhood Pride
This little green space represents Butchertown's effort to preserve outdoor areas within the urban environment. The well-maintained facilities and thoughtful design reflect the community's pride in their neighborhood spot. It's not just a park - it's a small but significant piece of what makes this community special.
