Murray Park

5900 Rebsamen Park Road

As a part of AARP's 60th Anniversary, AARP launched an ambitious effort in 2019 to create 53 fitness parks – one each in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. These AARP Sponsored Outdoor Fitness Parks Organized by FitLot are designed for adaptive use by people with a wide range of abilities and exercise needs.

The Murray Park site, immediately downstream from Murray Lock and Dam, is leased to the City of Little Rock by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The park was developed in 1976 by the Corps of Engineers at an approximate cost of 2.25 million dollars. Extensive site preparation was required for the construction of recreation facilities from the Arkansas River behind a protective rock revetment.
