In 2005 Wallace, Roberts & Todd, in conjunction with local landscape architecture firm Cashio Cochran, developed a City Park master plan, which recommended improvements to the golf complex with the exception of the South Course, which was to be converted to public space.

Designed by Wiedorn and course designer Joseph Bartholomew, the North Course completed the City Park golf complex, which, at its height, comprised four distinct courses and occupied approximately half of the 1,300-acre City Park. A third course, the West Course, opened in 1957, and a fourth, the North Course, opened in 1968. Efforts by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) brought an additional golf course in 1934-the East Course, designed by landscape architect William Wiedorn. From 1921 to 1922, the original 9-hole course was expanded to 27 holes, all south of the current Interstate 610. The club moved to Pontchartrain Boulevard in 1914 and the City Park course became the first public golf course in the city.
