 This
small park is at the intersection of South Park
Drive and North King Street, the site of the
former H. Fletcher Brown Vocational High School
and the earlier Old Soldiers’ Park. Named
for renowned Wilmington chemist and philanthropist
Harry Fletcher Brown (1867-1944), the park attracts
a diverse group of visitors. |
