Bryan Park, located on the city's Northside, is another of Richmond's historic parks. The entrance to the park is located near the I-95 interchange in the 4300 block of Hermitage Road
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the park was the site of a planned slavery insurrection known as Gabriel's Rebellion.
