William B. Howard Station Park

William B. Howard Station Park stands on the original depot grounds that were set aside for railroad use when the town of Strother was platted on October 28, 1865. The town of Strother was later incorporated as the city of Lee's Summit on November 4, 1868. Named for the founder of Lee's Summit, the park was planned by the Missouri Community Betterment Committee of Lee's Summit and financed by the Jackson County legislature, local clubs, and individuals for the enjoyment of all who visit it.
