Lytle Park is a small, urban park on the east side of the downtown area of Cincinnati, Ohion, near the I-71. A short walk to the Taft Museum of Art on Pike Street, the modest park is notable for George Grey Barnard's stature of United States President Abraham Lincoln. Although controversial at its unveiling, the bronze standing figure of Abraham Lincoln is probably the truest likeness of the Great Emancipator. - AsNotedIn
