Grover Nelson Park's unchanging history and vision started with Grover Nelson, the park's namesake. The railroad, huge areas, and airport helped Abilene become a successful community in the 1950s. With the new growth, it was decided to relocate the airport to a larger area in order to keep up with the growth of airline traffic and the necessity for longer runways for Dyess Air Force Base's Jets and Planes.
