Reviewed 2026-10-22. Current city profile confirms the rail-to-trail parkway and five parks. MDOT identifies the narrow concrete core and explicitly says the larger loop incorporates city streets. The broad 3.75-mile city inventory is not an entirely separated circuit. Follow current signs restricting particular park branches. State historic-property inventory locates the park at East Street/East Broad, distinct from the similarly named family-services office; current gazebo work, if posted, must be avoided. This is a source review, not a same-day inspection. Recheck the linked manager before travel.
