The Frederick H. Alms Memorial Park, commonly referred to as Alms Park, is a lovely 85-acre public park in Cincinnati's Mount Lookout and Columbia-Tusculum neighborhoods, owned and overseen by the Cincinnati Park Board. The park was originally donated to the City of Cincinnati by the widow of Frederick H. Alms in 1916, located on land that was originally owned by influential Cincinnati patriarch Nicholas Longworth. Original park landscaping was completed by Cleveland-based landscape architect Albert Davis Taylor. Today, the park is home to a beautiful Italian Renaissance-style centerpiece pavilion, which was designed in 1929 by architects Charles Wilkins Short, Jr. and Stanley Matthews. A bronze statue also showcases the embodiment of songwriter and "My Old Kentucky Home" author Stephen Foster, facing toward the city's southern border with Kentucky.
