About the Robert Cardinal Park
Robert Cardinal Park is a beautiful park located at 7325 Robert Cardinal Airport Road in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, United States. The park is dedicated to Robert "Bobby" Cardinal, who served as the Tuscaloosa Regional Airport Manager from 1968 until his tragic death in 1977. Mr. Cardinal played a crucial role in the development of the airport, overseeing the lengthening of runways, construction of a terminal and facilities, and improving commercial air service in Tuscaloosa.
In addition to his work in aviation, Mr. Cardinal was involved in various civic and business affairs, serving as a flight instructor in WWII, board member and aviation committee chairman for the Chamber of Commerce, trustee of the Tuscaloosa Academy, and a member of the Exchange Club of Tuscaloosa. The park features a T-33 trainer plane, "Shooting Star," which was gifted to the City of Tuscaloosa by the Air Force in 1963. The plane was airlifted to the park ahead of its dedication ceremony on September 17, 1981. Robert Cardinal Park is a fitting tribute to a man who made significant contributions to the aviation industry and his community.

Reviews of Robert Cardinal Park
"Park is beside the airport area. Northport/ Tuscaloosa."
"Nice small park by the airport. It was clean and maintained."
"Don't want to rate it because it is a quiet place to enjoy with baby but don't want anyone to get in trouble lol"
"Just took a late evening stroll to the park to be alone and listen out for incoming or outgoing planes. Just a relaxing place to sit and think. I believe it has something to do with those blue lights on the run way. Lol"
"We live going to this park! We have been going for about 12 years. It is always clean, always kept up, and always feels safe. As a cool bonus, you can sometimes watch planes and helicopters take off and land. There is a playground, swings, water fountain, picnic tables, and a covered area with picnic tables."
