Edward "Ted" and Pat Jones-Confluence Point State Park is a state-owned, public recreation area in St. Charles County, Missouri, located on the north side of the Missouri River at its confluence with the Mississippi River.〔 The state park encompasses of shoreline and bottomland and is managed by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, which "plans to restore a natural floodplain reminiscent of what Lewis and Clark might have seen along the lower Missouri River."〔 The park is part of the Mississippi Greenway (formerly known as the Confluence Greenway)〔 and sits opposite the Columbia Bottom Conservation Area.
==History==
The Lewis and Clark Expedition began at the confluence in 1804, and the explorers returned there at the end of their journey.〔 Following the purchase of the site through the aid of a grant from the Danforth Foundation, the Western Rivers Conservancy conveyed the land to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and the Metropolitan Parks and Recreation District in 2001.〔 The park opened May 9, 2004. It is named for Edward Jones Investments heir Edward D. "Ted" Jones and his wife Pat Jones, who donated $2.2 million for development of the Katy Trail.〔
