Leif Erickson Park originally went by the name of Called Cullum Park, followed by Lake Shore Park, before becoming Leif Erikson Park in 1927. The name change followed Bert Enger’s purchase of the Leif Erikson replica vessel, the original of which sailed to Duluth from Norway. Enger donated the replica to the City with the condition of it being placed within the park and the name of the park changed in its honor. This greenspace is situated near the mouth of the Chester Creek along Lake Superior. The park also features the Lakewalk cutting through it the Rose Garden.
