About Highland Park
Highland was acquired in 1898. Because of its hilly topography and proximity to downtown, it has been a long-time favorite location for viewing the downtown skyline and city fireworks displays on July 4th.
This park is located in the Holy Cross Westminister neighborhood, a revitalized section of the near eastside of downtown. Highland Park is one of the highest points of the city. This park gives visitors a spectacular view of the city skyline.
