Court Square Park (formerly Jackson Park and Justice Park) is a public park in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Court Square Park is 0.4 acres bounded by Jefferson Street, Fourth Street N.E., High Street and the Albemarle County Court Building.[1] Paul Goodloe McIntire established the park in 1919 by donating the land to the city of Charlottesville.[1]

The Thomas Jonathan Jackson statue has been in the park since 1921.

In November 2016 the Blue Ribbon Commission on Race, Memorials and Public Spaces published a report recommending transforming the statue into a monument for remembering racial oppression and to change the name from Jackson Park.[2][3]

Until June 2017 the park was named Jackson Park.[4] From June 2017 - July 2018 the park was Justice Park.[4] From July 2018-present it has been named the Court Square Park.[4]
