| Whitetail Deer - Renovated North Overlook - Olmsted Park - Iroquois Park |
The community settled on a plan to repair the damaged and vandalized overlook in Iroquois Park at the top of Iroquois hill. The work was organized by the Olmsted Parks Conservancy and has taken part of 2015 and most of 2016 to complete. I was surprised at the number of trees that were removed from the hillside. By removing the trees the work crews opened the overlook so that the people could see to the Ohio River on the west side of Louisville and see New Albany, Indiana. It has been fifty to seventy years since the view has been so unobstructed at the overlook. I wonder if Frederick Law Olmsted would be pleased with the new look of the overlook at Iroquois Park.
