McGOVERN CENTENNIAL GARDENS FORMAL LAWN CLOSURE: Due to a re-sodding project necessary for the health and growth of its grass, the formal lawn in the McGovern Centennial Gardens will be closed from Monday, Nov. 11, through approximately Monday, Dec. 2. Please exercise caution and awareness in the area as heavy machinery may be operated in the area, and please respect any pathway closures in place. Your patience and understanding are appreciated as this maintenance project is performed.
WATER AT McWILLIAMS DOG PARK: Due to a water break in the area, not all of the water features in the McWilliams Dog Park have access to water and are not operational. The water features currently affected will be without water until further notice as the City of Houston completes the repairs necessary to restore water to the entire McWilliams Dog Park. We apologize for the inconvenience.
IF YOU PLAN TO VISIT THE COMMONS: Please consider parking at the Memorial Hermann Medical Plaza Garage (Winpark), located at 6400 Fannin Street, which is across the street from the Commons site. There is a daily fee to park in this garage on the weekend.

McGovern Centennial Gardens
With over 445 acres, there's lots to do in Hermann Park.
Not sure where to start? Take a look at all the Park's points of interest, then start planning your visit!
Hermann Park’s handsome Spanish-style clubhouse was built in 1933 and served as the Hermann Park Golf Course clubhouse for generations of golfers. A new golf clubhouse was built on the corner of Almeda Road and MacGregor Way in 1999. The Conservancy has now restored the historic clubhouse as a private event venue, now named Lott Hall.
HPC members are a vital part of keeping Hermann Park looking good. Membership gifts support the Conservancy's stewardship efforts, like volunteer programs and maintenance initiatives. Members get great benefits too, like free train tickets, invitations to member exclusive events, and more!
Whether you’re a runner, jogger, walker, cyclist or someone who simply wants a fun morning in the Park, we hope you join us at our annual Park to Port Bike Ride and Run in the Park events on Saturday, Oct. 26, and Saturday, Nov. 16, respectively.
All proceeds from Run in the Park and Park to Port benefit the Conservancy and our mission to maintain and improve Hermann Park now and for future generations.
