The PARK at madison station

LOCATION: Nashville, TN
DATE COMPLETED: Ongoing
CLIENT: Metro Parks and Recreation - Nashville

In 2022 HDLA, was commissioned by Nashville Parks and Recreation Department to create a Conceptual Master Plan for the Park at Madison Station. The rapid redevelopment of the Madison area highlighted the need for a reinvestment in the park and the creation of additional greenspace. The Park at Madison Station is the central component to the revitalization of this historic district and will be the hub for the revitalization of the Madison Community as part of the redevelopment of the Madison Station Boulevard. The new park design creates a series of outdoor spaces that activate a prominent corner in Madison bringing life to an underutilized area adjacent to the Nashville Public Library Madison Branch, the Fifty Forward Community Center, and the up-and-coming Roots Barn. The Park at Madison Station will provide a much-needed open space and is centrally located to serve the needs of this diverse community. The park will be inclusive and accessible featuring a new community lawn, adventure playground, large multi-use sports courts and green infrastructure stormwater facilities integrated into the park program with pathways connecting all elements and serving as a community walking track. These park elements radiate from a new, custom community pavilion which will be the centerpiece of the park.
