Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Park
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Park was originally named Walnut Park. In 2004, Hendersonville City Council voted to rename the park Dr. Martin Luther King Park following input from a committee charged with finding ways to honor the civil rights leader. The park was upgraded and expanded to include picnic tables, benches, a small walking path and an engraved memorial honoring the park’s namesake in 2006. A portion of U.S. Hwy 64 East/Four Seasons Blvd. was renamed Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard following a community petition and City Council resolution in the early 2000s.
