Methodist Memorial Park - Deadwood, South Dakota

Photo Description

The Methodist Memorial Park is located at the corner of Shine and Williams Streets in Deadwood. The city park mimics the layout of the original church that once stood here, with benches laid out like pews and a giant brick and steel steeple designed to match the original church bell tower. Flowers and shrubs blossom in the remarkable concrete and stone planters. The late Marvin Lehmen, the park’s general contractor, received an award from South Dakota’s Concrete Trade Group for the fine quality of the park’s construction.
