==Summary==
Pioneers Park, located just outside Lincoln, is significant for its association with local and federal unemployment relief programs of the 1930s such as the Works Progress Administration, the National Youth Administration, and the Civil Works Administration. These programs were established during the Great Depression to provide employment in public works of lasting value. Additionally, the park benefited from local unemployment relief programs, implemented in the late 1920s. The park is also an excellent example of a large scale park with distinctive designed features such as allees, vistas, winding roads, path systems, and sculptural focal points. Work on the park began in 1928 with the final historically significant components of the original plan being implemented in 1939.
