Named after Gene & Denise Parker
Gene and Denise Parker moved to the Heatherwood neighborhood in the early 1970s. Through their efforts, the 1st filing park was founded and the Heatherwood neighborhood could enjoy a beautiful green space with views of the flatirons and beyond. The park truly adds value to residents’ lives, and to our neighborhood as a whole.
For decades, you could find the Parkers enjoying the green grass, lounging on park benches, and waving to their neighbors. In 2020 the park was officially renamed Parker Park and commemorated with a sign. We’re forever grateful that the Parkers had the foresight to save this parcel of land and make it into something we all can enjoy.
“Nature surrounds us, from parks and backyards to streets and alleyways. Next time you go out for a walk, tread gently and remember that we are both inhabitants and stewards of nature in our neighborhoods.
