Lubbock Park Background Swirls

Project Summary

The Lubbock Downtown Park will be a program and event-oriented public use space in the center of Lubbock, located between Broadway and 13th Street and Avenues L and M, encompassing the entire city block. It will be built using funds from private donations, grants from charitable organizations and funds set aside for downtown improvement projects. The broader vision for Broadway, as part of the city’s updated master plan for revitalization of the downtown area, is to have a walkable, vibrant, business hub with shops, mixed use office spaces, an indoor market, and housing all centered around a downtown park.

Building a park downtown will serve as a catalyst for other revitalization projects—the park will be a major attraction for current and future downtown residents, businesses, employees, and visitors driving other development projects aimed at repurposing existing buildings into living and working spaces. The build plans are nearing completion. The space is envisioned to have open lawn space, a multi-use stage, a splash pad, a pet relief area, a public art corner, a game zone for outdoor activities, a food truck court, and other features to enable the park to be a thriving heartbeat and hub of activity in downtown Lubbock.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHO WILL OWN AND OPERATE THE PARK?

The Downtown Park will be privately owned, operated and managed by a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, formed once the funds for construction have been raised. The nonprofit organization will have its own staff to manage and operate the park.

HOW WILL THE PARK BE BUILT?

The park construction will be funded through private donations, grants from private foundations, and development funds set aside by the Central Business District TIF.

HOW WILL THE PARK BE MAINTAINED?

Once the park is built, it will be managed by dedicated park staff, who are employed by the non-profit park organization (this park is not part of the City of Lubbock’s park system). The initial capital campaign will include operational and endowment funds that will be used to cover repairs, renovations, and updates over time.

HOW CAN I STAY UPDATED ON THE PROGRESS OF THE PARK?

To stay updated on the park’s progress, sign up for email updates in the Contact Us section above.

WILL THERE BE A COST TO VISIT THE PARK?

No! The park features (splashpad, pet relief area, game zone, public art displays) will all be free and accessible to anyone during park operation hours. There may be times when the entire park, or sections of the park, are fenced off for special events, which may either be private, or accessible to the public through ticket purchases.

HOW WILL ISSUES WITH UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THE PARK AFTER HOURS BE ADDRESSED?

The park will employ sundown-to-sunup security personnel to ensure there is no unauthorized use of the park. Certain park features (e.g. splashpad & bathrooms) will be operational only during designated times.
