PARKS AND RECREATION

Riley Park Recreational Trail

The City of Noble has finished a beautiful recreational trail in the seven-acre Riley Park located at 1401 N. Main Street on the north end of town.

The City obtained a park grant to construct a lighted hard-surface walking track that features a historical railroad bridge. The track is 8/10ths of a mile long and includes a trailhead stretching area, handicapped parking, and a new picnic pavilion.

Riley Park Recreational Trail

Riley Park is traversed by a natural creek and is landscaped with full-grown trees of all varieties. The west end of the park is bordered by an old limestone rock and brick bridge that was built by the Santa Fe Railroad in 1887. The bridge predates even the historical Land Run of 1889-the event that marks the beginning of Noble’s colorful history.

Fencing, park benches and picnic tables were added as well to make this a great recreational space for Noble residents for years to come.

Dane Park

Located on a five acres in a heavily populated area with an ajoining senior citizen village, Dane Park will serve young and old alike. The park is still being developed, but plans are to have a Splash Pad installed by Summer of 2007. Future plans for the park include multi-purpose trails and a skateboard park.
