Oppenstein Brothers Memorial Park is an urban park located in the heart of Kansas City, Missouri's, Central business district. Located at the northeast corner of 12th and Walnut Streets, it used to be home to the Rain Thicket Fountain that was established in 1980. The park is often visited by business men and business women of the many surrounding buildings on lunch and coffee breaks. Some notable buildings in the surrounding area are One Kansas City Place, Town Pavilion, and 1010 Grand Building.

A complete redesign and rebuilding of Oppenstein Brothers Memorial Park at 12th and Walnut in downtown Kansas City, Missouri was dedicated on April 18, 2008. The park concept is named Celestial Flyways to celebrate the natural environment of the Kansas City area. The park was designed by Kansas City artist Laura DeAngelis and Davison Architecture + Urban Design and was commissioned by the Art in the Loop Foundation, a metropolitan organization of business and civic leaders with a continuing mission to enhance central Kansas City with public art. This project was a cooperative venture between the city of Kansas City and Jackson Country Parks and Recreation. It required two years of work, the talents of at least 150 people at a cost of nearly $500,000, much of which was donated.[1] - Celestial Flyways
