The city's total consolidated population as of the 2020 census was 782,969.

The rebuild was completed on April 14, 2015, where the park was dedicated in former Louisville Mayor David L. Armstrong's honor.In 2023, it was announced that the park would be closing at 11PM every night, transitioning to a limited operating schedule for the first time since the park opened.
