- McAdams Park is located in Wichita, Kansas, United States at 1329 E. 13th Street. The park was originally 12 acres (4.9 ha) and named McKinley park when it opened in 1901. Later parcels were added in 1941, 1946, and 1980. In 1966, the City of Wichita renamed McKinley Park to McAdams Park in honor of the late Emerson McAdams. McAdams, a former city policeman, served 27 years as director of McKinley Park. He died October 20, 1965, aged 52. Facilities at the park were enhanced in 1968 in conjunction with construction of the canal route. Land and Water Conservation Funds, provided by the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism and the National Park Service, have been used to develop this park. The city's first artificial turf baseball diamond was constructed in 2016, and a new restroom/concession stand constructed in 2017. (en)
