Fort Wayne's newest park space is located at the intersection of McKinnie Avenue and South Anthony Boulevard in the Rudisill Plaza and Anthony Wayne Neighborhoods.

With the input of several hundred residents in the Southeast Strategy Planning Process, this unique space has designed and built the excess right-of-way space from McKinnie Avenue into a programmable plaza featuring a bandshell and space for outdoor activities. The plaza also features oversized swings, access to food trucks, a pop-up vendor space, an outdoor dining area, and shade sails to help protect visitors from the weather.

Thank you to the Community that came out to join us at Unity Lighting on November 25th. Continue to enjoy the Unity Lighting all season long!

This event was brought to you in partnership with the Greater Fort Wayne National Pan-Hellenic Council.

The annual McKinnie Commons Unity Lighting provides a sense of unity and togetherness in partnership with the Greater Fort Wayne National Pan-Hellenic Council. The event included hot chocolate, and a hat and glove giveaway to children while supplies lasted.

McKinnie Commons Connections provides free summer programming for the community and encourages people to come together for entertainment, food, and learning opportunities. We are now planning for next summer. Please help us by filling out the brief survey on this page so we can create new experiences in 2025.
