 The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board held a ribbon-cutting ceremony yesterday for a newly renovated Northside Park. It was celebrated for its new name and improvements. Farwell Park in the Willard Hay neighborhood is now the Lorraine B. Smaller Park. She was an educator and Northside activist. She died in 2022. Her husband, Floyd Smaller, spoke at the ceremony. It's great to have a park named after a woman.
