Frank B. Seymour Park

The Wisconsin Central Railway, (formerly the Green Bay and Western Railway), forms the boundary west and south of this park. It was this railway where Rank B. Seymour Served for 64 years, rising from water boy to President. In his long and unusual career, he brought distinction to his industry and his city. He provided the leadership in the move to convert an unsightly slough into this useful public property and contributed substantially to its improvement.
