David Armstrong Extreme Park

It opened on April 5, 2002, and gained national recognition after the release of Tony Hawk's Gigantic Skatepark Tour, in which the park was featured.

In 2014, about one-third of the park was demolished, to be followed by the rebuilding of facilities on adjacent property, to make way for flyover ramps to support the new Abraham Lincoln Bridge.

[1] The rebuild was completed on April 14, 2015, where the park was dedicated in former Louisville Mayor David L. Armstrong's honor.

This was a response to a rise in criminal activity and increased need for police presence at the park during late-night hours.

At this time, several cameras were installed to enforce the curfew, and better monitor the park during operating hours.
