Located north of downtown, where the Mill Race and Kalamazoo rivers meet. Fannie Pell Park is a one acre landscaped park located at the northern end of the Central Business District on Main Street. The park contains a gazebo (frequently used for weddings), picnic tables, canoe and kayak landing, and City Hall entrance.

There is a floating dock on the Mill Race which provides access upstream only. There is also a floating dock on the main stem of the Kalamazoo River. A strong paddler can go upstream on the Mill Race and then take a short portage by the dam which creates the Mill Race to access the main stem of the Kalamazoo River and thus do a circuit back to Fanny Pell Park.
