Kindleberger Park Historic Marker

The State Historic Marker emphasizes that Kindleberger Park was part of a much larger vision for KVP and the village of Parchment. Mr. Kindleberger was determined that both the company and the village would be "models for the world." Kindleberger Park would become the "Crown Jewel" of Kindleberger's vision, but the community enjoyed other amenities as well. In 1922, for example, KVP built the Community House and hired a well-respected sociologist from Ohio to oversee community development.
