Ruby Tucker Park

Gateway to Lynhaven

Developed in 2002 as part of the Preston condominium project, Ruby Tucker Park is a modest green retreat in Alexandria's Potomac Yard neighborhood. This little oasis is lovingly maintained by the condominium association, offering a breath of fresh air amid the urban landscape.

Honoring a Community Legend

Behind this small park lies a big story - it's named after Ruby Tucker, fondly remembered as the "Queen of Lynhaven." More than just a title, Tucker earned her royal status through years of tireless community advocacy. She poured her heart into the First Agape Baptist Community of Faith of Alexandria, where she served as a devoted founding member, deaconess, and missionary.

Facilities and Amenities

What Ruby Tucker Park lacks in size, it makes up for in purpose. Though the amenities are simple, the park functions as a welcoming gateway to the Lynhaven neighborhood - the very community where Tucker dedicated decades of her life.
