Mill Creek Park, Youngstown (must see)

Mill Creek Park is the second largest metropolitan park in the United States after Fairmount Park in Philadelphia, and the 140th largest park located within the limits of a U.S. City.

The park was founded in 1891 due to the "untiring efforts of Youngstown attorney Volney Rogers".

Mill Creek Park now stretches from the near west side of Youngstown to the southern borders of the city and neighboring Boardman township. The park "encompasses approximately 2,600 acres (10.5 km²), 20 mi (32 km) of drives, and 15 mi (24 km) of foot trails" as well as a variety of bridges, ponds, streams, well-tended gardens, and waterfalls.
