Who We Are
​
At Greensboro Downtown Parks, Inc. (GDPI), we believe parks are more than just green spaces—they’re where the community comes together. Our mission is to manage and activate Greensboro’s downtown parks, focusing on public engagement, park maintenance, financial sustainability, and keeping these spaces vibrant and full of life.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we work to create welcoming, dynamic places where people can connect, play, and relax. Through free programs, local partnerships, and creative public spaces, we’re making downtown Greensboro a more connected, healthy, and thriving community—one park experience at a time.
