A wonderful quiet park with trails throughout. Walk along the high hills along the bay. Scott Park is a surprisingly pristine nature walk. It is most often a secluded walk as many locals aren't even aware of its existence.

Good food and a nice selection of beers. This is Erie's old train station. It has a great deal of marble in its construction and be warned; it is noisy. But it's a good time and one of Erie's genuine historical sites.
