City of Forest Park

Starr Park Master Plan

Forest Park, GA

Lord Aeck Sargent is working with the City of Forest Park to study how the redevelopment of the City’s signature greenspace, Starr Park, can be utilized to benefit the City on three distinct scales: Park, Neighborhood, and City.

At the Park scale we are creating a master plan for a renovated Starr Park, determining best uses for the facility, and how to re-program the space for flexibility and responsiveness to users. At the Neighborhood scale we are determining how a re-visioned Park can help catalyze economic redevelopment and encourage home ownership in a newly branded community surrounding Starr Park. At the City scale we are studying and determining best practices for the Research and Leisure Services department across all City-operated parks and recreation facilities.
