The park was originally the location of the University of Tennessee College of Medicine, which was established in the late 19th century.

The park was home to a statue of Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest, which was removed in 2017 after much public debate.

Health Sciences Park is strategically located within the Memphis Medical District, surrounded by hospitals and research institutions, making it a green space for healthcare professionals and students.

The park includes several sculptures and art installations that reflect the city's rich cultural and historical heritage.
