The original plan for Chickasaw Park was designed by the Frederick Law Olmsted firm.It features the city's only free clay tennis courts. Other features include baseball, volleyball and basketball facilities, and a spray pool.When the other Olmsted parks in Louisville were closed to Blacks in 1924, Chickasaw was the only one that remained open to them until the parks were desegregated in 1954 by Mayor Andrew Broaddus.Chickasaw Park is a municipal park in the West End neighborhood of Louisville Kentucky. It is fronted to the west by the Ohio River and by Southwestern Parkway to the east. It was formerly the country estate of political boss John Henry Whallen, and began development as a park in 1922. Chickasaw Park is part of the Olmsted Park System, but was a later addition, as Shawnee, Iroquois, and Cherokee Parks were designed in the 1880s by Frederick Law Olmsted himself.The City Parks Commission passed a resolution in 1924 making Chickasaw Park and a few other small parks black-only and making the larger parks in the city white-only. The park was desegregated by Mayor Andrew Broaddus in 1955 after the NAACP aided three Louisville residents take the city to court over the inequalities between the white- and black-only parks in Louisville in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education.The park features the city's only free clay tennis courts. Other features include a basketball court, a pond, a sprayground, two playgrounds, a lodge, and two picnic pavilions.".
