Summary
The Grant City Park is significant for its association with the Works Progress Administration (WPA). The park, with its band shell, benches, rustic stone walls, entrances, and landscape trees is an excellent example of the type of recreational facilities constructed by the WPA and other New Deal public programs. Construction on the park began in 1935 and was completed in 1939.

The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) is the country’s official list of historically significant properties.

The National Register of Historic Places is a National Park Service program administered by the Nebraska State Historical Society for the state of Nebraska.
