Francis Park is located between Eichelberger Street, Nottingham Avenue, Donovan Avenue and Tamm Avenue.[1] The park was named for David Rowland Francis (1850-1927), who had been the President of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, governor of Missouri and mayor of St. Louis (1885-1889), who donated 60 acres of land for the park as a gift to the city of St. Louis on Christmas Eve in 1916. In 2018, a 7 foot bronze sculpture of Francis by artist Harry Weber was dedicated.[2][3] The park's amenities include handball, racquetball, and tennis courts; soccer and softball fields; and a playground.[4] The St. Louis Hills Neighborhood Association runs an art fair, 5k, and bike race as fundraisers for upkeep of the park.[1] See alsoSt. Louis Hills neighborhood Lindenwood Park neighborhood References1. ^1 {{Cite web|url=http://www.stlouiscitytalk.com/posts/2013/10/francis-park|title=Francis Park|website=St. Louis City Talk|language=en-US|access-date=2018-12-23}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=https://stlhills.com/david-r-francis-memorial/|title=David R.
