Celebrate Henry Glover Place on Black Broadway

Snap a photo for a holiday memory at the majestic king’s throne at Henry Glover Place on Malvern Avenue.

In the heart of Malvern Avenue stands Henry Glover Place, a touching homage to the late Hot Spirngs native, Henry Glover, commemorating his unparalleled contributions to the entertainment industry. Established on what is known as Black Broadway, this park marks the centenary of Glover’s birth (1921-2021), honoring his enduring legacy.

Located at 348 Malvern Avenue, the park features musical sculptures, the “Black Broadway” mural, landscaping, and seating. The hand-painted mural adorns the wall and a bench provides an ideal spot for relaxation and immersion in the park’s beauty. As a holiday addition, a majestic king’s throne, illuminated by regal reindeer flanking each side, provides a true gem for family photos. Adjacent to this charming park lies a stunning mosaic planter crafted by Mosaic Madness within the Hot Springs City Building.

This picturesque setting invites visitors to capture cherished moments and create lasting memories. Heartfelt thanks are due to the City of Hot Springs and Parks & Trails for their unwavering dedication to preserving such natural treasures, enhancing the landscape for all to enjoy.

So, take a pause from your day and visit this remarkable park, located at 348 Malvern Avenue, snap a photo, and etch a memory into the legacy of Henry Glover Place—a tribute to both an icon of entertainment and the spirit of community preservation.
