Rev. Ernest D. Butler Park

The Rev. Ernest D. Butler Park, formerly known as Ninth Street Park, is located on West 9th Street. It was renamed for Reverend Butler shortly after his death in 2003.

The park was the subject of some controversy in 2007 when the suggestion was made that the city and the MCCSC swap the park for Fairview Elementary. The consensus of the surrounding community was that it was a bad idea.
