Favorites after visiting half the park sites

/ bigdiff

My old favorites from the first 100 sites still stand. But, especially traveling so much in the northeast recently, many of my new favorites are Historical Parks, which are treasure troves.

Most in need of a big budget Hollywood epic to tell the story: Clark.

Favorite Revolutionary War site: Minute Man.

Best site for art’s sake: Gaudens.

Most stirring patriotic site: McHenry.

Site with the least to see but the most fun I had writing a blog entry: Poe.

Favorite from childhood memory: Marsh.

Biggest rule broken: Steamtown.

Most innovative site that also serves historic beer: Dayton.

Best overall city park? Honorable mentions go to Boston and New Bedford, but the best so far is Philly.

Can’t choose a favorite? Oh yes I can: Harpers.
