The Draft Plan will be available online starting on May 8th, and there will be a 30-day comment period where final comments and input will be collected and worked into the plan to ensure that the Final Draft is in alignment with your ideas, aspirations, and concerns. You can learn more at  mp.downtownlr.com closer to the event. 

 

Lastly, we encourage you to share information about this final public meeting with your friends, coworkers, and neighbors so we can ensure everyone has an opportunity to contribute to and be a part of the master planning process.

NEW MacArthur Park Historic District Design Guidelines

 

 

Little Rock has a rich diversity of historic buildings, structures, and sites representative of the quintessential southern city, with charming and architecturally eclectic assets. The MacArthur Park Historic District embodies these qualities, having irreplaceable resources that define the city’s history and image. To help preserve these assets, the City of Little Rock and the Little Rock Historic District Commission, in partnership with The Lakota Group, has embarked on a comprehensive update to the MacArthur Park Historic District Design Guidelines. This project is funded by the City of Little Rock with assistance from the Historic Preservation Fund, administered by the National Park Service, Department of the Interior and the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program, an agency of the Division of Arkansas Heritage.

A successful Design Guidelines document depends on community input. We invite all residents and stakeholders to actively participate in this initiative. Visit the project website to find more information about the project, stay tuned to updates, and share input: www.macarthurparksdg.com
