Lincoln Park refresh planned for spring start

Lincoln Park, one of the most historically significant green spaces in Zionsville, is preparing for a refresh focused on function, accessibility, and long-term use. Located in the heart of the Village, the park marks the site where Abraham Lincoln once spoke and where his funeral service was held when the train carrying his remains passed back through town.

Plans include improvements to address drainage, a new gazebo to replace the former structure (with amenities such as electrical access), and updates intended to make the space easier to use for more people, including improved accessibility. Work is expected to begin in the spring, with completion targeted for late 2026. A fundraising brick program is scheduled to reopen in January.
