Fort organized the first lunch counter sit-ins in the Woolworth department store in Tampa in 1960 and went on to serve as the NAACP Youth Council president. He also led the initiative to integrate the workforce of Tampa Transit Lines. A half-mile-long trail at the park encircles an existing retention pond and features eight fitness stations.
