Collett Park




Josephus Collett had a busy lifestyle building railroads and making money. In 1883, he donated something to Terre Haute that made a difference in the community. 21.1 acres of wooded land about a mile east of the Wabash River on the city’s north side. More than a century after Collett died, the public park that carries his name is on its seventh generation.
