Hermann Park’s master plan, commissioned in 1993 by Hermann Park Conservancy (then Friends of Hermann Park) and developed by acclaimed landscape architect Laurie Olin, identified $70 million in necessary park improvements. The master plan has served as a guide for all renovations and enhancements since its adoption by City Council in 1995, and has been approached in phases. The first phase was completed in 2006, while Phase 2 launched the following year.

VISITOR SERVICES The Visitor Services team is responsible for creating an exciting and memorable experience for Park visitors. Staff members are in the Park nearly every day of the year ensuring Lake Plaza is operating efficiently and safely. Generations of Houstonians have come to expect great things when they come to Hermann Park, and it is the responsibility of the 10 to 15 member Visitor Services staff to surpass those expectations. The Hermann Park Railroad ended the year with over 377,000 tickets sold and exceeded $1 million in revenue, a 14% increase over the previous year. An additional $160,000 in revenue was generated by the pedal boat operations, with nearly 19,000 boat rides on McGovern Lake. The Conservancy gift shop and cafe in the new Lake Plaza welcomed visitors, while private train rides and birthday celebrations were introduced to further grow revenue to support the Conservancy’s efforts in the Park.
