Community Meeting: Harry P. Leu Gardens Master Plan

Harry P. Leu Gardens, Orlando’s historic 50-acre botanical treasure, is in the process of developing a conceptual Master Plan - a once-in-a-generation roadmap to guide the Gardens into the future of growth, conservation, and community engagement.

This planning effort, which began in January 2025 following the adoption of a new strategic plan, is now in the concept phase. While no final designs have been determined, the early visions offer a glimpse of what the future may hold for Harry P. Leu Gardens.

The design team leading the transformation of Harry P. Leu Gardens brings together a distinguished group of landscape architects, architects, and designers known for creating inspired, sustainable public spaces that connect people with nature and culture. Together with the Gardens & City of Orlando leadership, community leaders, and stakeholders, they are guiding the Gardens next generation of growth by looking at modernizing operations, enhancing visitor experiences, creating new revenue opportunities, and strengthening long-term stewardship.

The plan continues to evolve with input from staff, stakeholders, and community members and reflects the Gardens mission to create inspiring experiences about the natural world for all people.

A community meeting to gather further input on the refinements of the master plan is planned for Monday, October 27, 2025, at 6 p.m. at the Gardens. It is open free to the public.
