The city’s name comes from 18th-century French fur traders that named it “La Grande Île” after an island in the nearby Platte River. The island was a landmark for westward travelers on the Oregon, California, and Mormon trails in the mid-1800s. A settlement was established near the river in 1857 but was moved few miles north to a railroad station.
Grand Island has two lakes, which are L E Ray Lake and Pier Lake. One can also visit parks like Abbot Park, Augustine Park, the Grand Island Heritage Zoo, and Ashley Park while in Grand Island.
