Riverside Park: Shade On Memorial

De Kayville Place, owned by the late John S. Kay, was the stable located just below the Neligh's Riverside Park entrance, and was once the home of the beautiful bay stallion, Shade On, and many other famous thoroughbreds. Shade On reached his zenith hall of fame in 1899 when he won the Classic Chamber of Commerce Stake at Detroit, Michigan, in a record of 2:08 ¼. He won many other races that season to become the leading money-winning pacer in the United States. During later years, he received even more acclaim as a sire of other famous winners.

Rainbow Fountain

The Rainbow Fountain is patterned after the Tanner Fountain at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, near Boston. The Tanner Fountain was created by notes designer Peter Walker and received the 2008 Landmark Award from the American Society of Landscape Architects and the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Neligh's fountain was named the "Rainbow Fountain" because, on a sunny day, rainbows can be seen in the mist.
