ORLANDO, Fla. – In a tribute to former Orlando Mayor Glenda Hood, the city is set to rename a park along the scenic Lake Baldwin this Friday.

The event, scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m., will see Harbor Park officially take on its new name, as detailed on the city’s website.

The city issued a statement highlighting Hood’s significant contributions to Orlando’s development and legacy.
