Description:
Kokomo's nickname is the "City of Firsts" and the Industrial Heritage Trail celebrates its progressive and inventive past with public art and signage highlighting the historic significance of some of the nearby factory buildings. It was here that the first successful test-run of the "horseless carriage" (the internal combustion engine) took place and where stainless steel flatware and the first mechanical corn picker, among other inventions, began.
This urban trail follows a former rail line along Home Avenue, stretching one mile from East Boulevard to Markland Avenue. From there, you can hop on Main Street's bike lane to go further north into downtown.
