At the Feb. 5 meeting about the master plan for Shelby Park, the Metro Parks Department, Everton Oglesby Architects and Hawkins Partners presented some history and background on Shelby Park. This information is available in a PDF here or on the Metro Parks website.
More than 100 citizens interested in Shelby Park attended the Feb. 5 meeting to share their ideas about Shelby Park, but the Parks department is continuing to collect ideas until at least Friday, Feb. 20. It is particularly interested in your answers to these questions:
- What issues should be addressed in the plan?
- What are the most important facilities or programs currently offered at Shelby Park that should
be maintained or improved, and what new facilities or programs should be considered?
- What do you think makes Shelby Park unique?

From an advisory issued by Metro Parks –
Metro Parks is in the initial stages of developing Shelby Park’s first master plan.
Critical to the planning process is participation by neighbors, stakeholder groups, and the general public. Interested parties are asked to share ideas, concerns and other issues at the first public meeting. Everton Oglesby Architects and Hawkins Partners, Landscape Architects, have been contracted to develop the plan.
Shelby Park’s first 151 acres opened to the public in 1912. Additional land was later added. Shelby Park hosted the first city baseball league in 1915, and remains home to Nashville’s oldest municipal golf course, which opened in 1924.
