Name This Peoria Landmark

Peoria Landmark #320

Nacho: “Is this the covered bridge in the North Pekin Park?”

Why yes it is – but I’m kicking myself because I didn’t write down the name of the park. Anyone? Anyone?

Michael: “I’m not sure but is it Morrissey Park?”

I’m quite certain that is correct; it is located on the Illinois River side of Rte 29 in N. Pekin. I couldn’t find much information other than a few Village Board minutes and one article in the Journal Star archives (accessible via the Peoria Public Library’s website) describing some improvements being made.
