The park contains a bandstand constructed in 1911, The Lone Star Pavilion, Diggs Fountain Plaza, a playground area and the Trailside Nature Center (which houses Wolff Planetarium). On the northside of the park, one Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, there is a pink granite wall. The wall was constructed as part of a project done by University of Cincinnati students.
