Summit Overlook Park sits at the top of the Ramsey Hill and across historic Summit Avenue from Nathan Hale Park, with the two parks creating a triangular hourglass shape. Aside from views over the city’s West End neighborhood, the focal point of the park is the commanding New York Life Eagle sculpture. Public Art St Paul saved the bronze Eagle – cast in 1890 – from an uncertain future and installed it in Summit Overlook Park to keep watch over the bluff. You can read more about the history of the sculpture here. Commemorative benches are placed around the neat triangle where a grand hotel rose in the late 1850’s. In the past few years, Summit Overlook Park has been a site of St Paul’s Fitness in the Parks summer program.
