Everything about Jones-confluence Point State Park totally explained
Jones-Confluence Point State Park is a
Missouri state park located on the north side of the
Missouri River at its confluence with the
Mississippi River, approximately 8 miles north of the
St. Louis Arch. The park was opened
May 9,
2004, and includes 1,118 acres (4.5 km²) of shoreline and bottomland. The Park is part of the
Confluence Greenway.
The
Lewis and Clark Expedition began at this confluence in
1804. The
Missouri Department of Natural Resources manages the park and plans to
restore a natural floodplain reminiscent of what Lewis and Clark might have seen along the lower Missouri River. The area is noted as a great birdwatching site. Trails are under construction and will eventually connect with the
Katy Trail which runs for 225 miles (362 km) across Missouri to the west of the park.
The park is named for
Edward Jones Investments heir
Edward D. "Ted" Jones and his wife Pat Jones who donated $2.2 million for the Katy Trail.
