LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A new park in southern Indiana has officially opened.

Falls Landing in Jeffersonville opened last weekend. The park is a 2-acre open lawn space between 9th Street, Indiana Avenue and Ohio Avenue.

It features multicolored pavilions, a large center pathway to host art fairs and vendor tents, areas for sculpture gardens, pedestrian pathways and decorative lighting. 

City officials previously said the park will "serve two purposes" because the land it's being constructed on is prone to flooding after heavy rain. The city installed underground retention tanks that can hold 1.4 million gallons of water.
