GLENWOOD PARK HISTORY

In 1902 twenty-five acres, which is currently the residential area of Glenwood Park and Glenwood Court, was acquired by the Louisville and Southern Indiana Traction Company. The Company ran the interurban rail line that connected New Albany, Jeffersonville and Louisville. Electric streetcars hustled passengers and freight between the cities. As a marketing tool to help increase passenger traffic the entrepreneurs of the line wanted to create a destination spot. That’s exactly what they did at Glenwood Park. The site had a dancehall pavilion, ballpark, bowling alley, bandstand, tennis courts, amphitheater, and more. Thousands of people flocked there to enjoy a resort atmosphere. Picnics, pageants, outdoor opera, swimming, boating along Silver Creek, dancing, and music.

During the year the park opened in 1903, Dr. John Baldwin of Jeffersonville, envisioned the Park as an ideal location in which to introduce Chautauqua to the surrounding area. He with 10 other prominent men from New Albany and Jeffersonville formed the Chautauqua Association. So one year after the park opened, Glenwood Park saw its first Chautauqua. The Fall Cities and surrounding towns eagerly anticipated and experienced a happy, informative, entertaining vacation lifestyle in beautiful Glenwood Park. The park was sold for residential development in 1935.
