Love Our Parks
Mayor Sylvester Turner is working with the Houston Parks and Recreation Department to improve and upgrade neighborhood parks through The Mayor’s Love Our Parks Complete Communities I Initiative. Phase One of the program targets five parks in under-resourced communities with a goal of enhancing neighborhood pride. Four parks have received improvements through this initiative. Zurrie Malone Park, Our Park, Woodruff Park, and Earl Henderson Park. Catherine Delce Park will be completed in February 2022.
To celebrate the completion of work the Houston Parks and Recreation Department hosts Love Our Parks Fests at each park. Each event features special programming and activities from the Houston Parks and Recreation Department, Houston Public Library, the Houston Police Department and the Greater Houston Police Activities League (GHPAL), Houston Health Department, and Houston Public Works.
