Summary
The parcel of ground known as Jackson's Reserve is a 300-foot-square plot of ground that historically boasted a substantial grove of cottonwood trees. William Jackson, who established the grove and for whom the reserve is named, occupied the site in his own dwelling. Both the historic dwelling and the cottonwood grove have long since disappeared, but the parcel is still unbroken. The site has become a local landmark made famous by Willa Cather's colorful description of the grove in Song of the Lark.
