Landmark MN | Lake of the Isles Cityview Minneapolis Art Print

The campaign to add Lake of the Isles to the park system was led by Charles Loring, the first president of the park board. Loring, for whom Loring Park is named, was referred to as early as 1886 as the “Father of the Parks.” Loring had been the pivotal figure in securing the shores of Lake Harriet at almost no cost to the park board and he led the effort to replicate that success at Lake of the Isles. He was motivated in part by his desire to create a parkway from Central (Loring) Park out to Lake Harriet by a route other than Hennepin Avenue, which had at that time been designated as a parkway.
