About the Location
History and Origins
Finnigan Park is a 19-acre community park located in northeast Houston, Texas, south of I-10 East. The park is named after Annette Finnigan, who donated the land to provide Black residents of Houston with a new green space.
Community Partnership
The Finnigan Park Project, a partnership between the Office of Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis, the City of Houston, and HISD, was established to create educational, social, and recreational opportunities for residents. The park serves as a popular outdoor destination for visitors of all ages and abilities.
Facilities and Resources
Finnigan Park is home to the Finnigan Community Center, which offers various classes and resources for school-age children and older residents. The center includes a Youth Education Town (YET), created with the help of the NFL, which focuses on helping youth in the community learn new skills.
The YET provides a safe place for youth to gather and have fun while developing important life skills.
