To facilitate the continued growth and needs of the City of Tucker parks system, the City has partnered with Cooper Carry to create a community driven master plan for Henderson Park that will elevate the 120-acre park into a premier public space that provides both active and passive amenities that enhance the natural features of the site.

Project objectives include identifying enhanced aesthetics and functionality of the park; identifying options for underutilized portions of the park; identifying opportunities to expand/improve existing amenities as well as the addition of new amenities; identifying options for additional parking and pedestrian connectivity; and evaluating the potential for additional pickleball courts or a community center to be built within the park. The planning effort will also look at inclusive design elements, public safety improvements, and ways to preserve and promote native plants and wildlife habitats.

The master plan process kicked off in March of 2026 and should be complete by September 2026. There will be lots of exciting public engagement opportunities during this time, which will be posted on this webpage and our social media channels.
