The World's Largest Sycamore Stump, 57 feet in circumference and 12 feet high. Once a massive Sycamore tree shading Kokomo, it was nearly 800 years old before storms broke it down. The stump survived and extended its role as a Kokomoan gathering place. For several years, a telephone booth, large enough to accommodate more than a dozen people at a time, was housed inside it.

The stump has been displayed in Highland Park since 1916.
