Hubbard Park is a Milwaukee County park in the village of Shorewood, Wisconsin that received landmark status in 2000.[1] It is located on a nearly five-acre, 1,400 feet long strip of land between the Milwaukee River and the former Chicago and North Western Railway, now converted into part of the Oak Leaf Trail. It was named for William J. Hubbard, a former Village Board president.[2] The park also contains Hubbard Park Lodge, a restaurant,[3] and visitors access the park through a pedestrian tunnel running under the Oak Leaf Trail from a parking lot at the intersection of North Morris Blvd and East Menlo Blvd.
