The Garden City
Before the City of Niles was called the City of
Four Flags it was known as The Garden
City. Niles was a central hub for several railroad companies
and the name came about because of the admiration of the hundreds of
thousands of visitors whose first glimpse of our city was the
magnificent and beautiful gardens at our train depot.
Over the decades many of our residents have taken
their love for gardening and landscaping beyond their own home yards
and set out to keep the spirit of the Garden City alive. These
organizations, comprised of hard-working and dedicated men and
women, have been involved in everything from beautifying our
downtown each spring to decorating City Hall and the historic Amtrak
Train Depot for the winter holiday season. Because of their
volunteer efforts, the legacy of The Garden City still lives and
Niles is more beautiful than ever.

enjoy the beauty of this great city.
