The park, one of the first in Memphis designated for African Americans and named for philanthropists Cecil Milton and Boyce Alexander Gooch, who were known for providing scholarships and educational support to West Tennessee colleges, including Rhodes, was dedicated in 1957. In 2022, artist Jamond Bullock painted a mural for the neighborhood pool.\n\nCongressman Cohen made the following statement:\n\n\u201cThis major investment in Gooch Park will invigorate an already-vibrant North Memphis neighborhood and bring upgrades encouraging recreational activities for the entire neighborhood.
