Fun facts and History

Located in the Riverside area of East Fort Worth, Gid Hooper Park was acquired in 1976. The park is named for Gid Hooper (1883-1935), an African American real estate agent who at one time served as a school trustee for the black school in Tarrant County's Precinct #35 (Birdville). Hooper is buried in the People's Cemetery in Haltom City.
