History: The Fairfax County School Board changed the name of JEB Stuart High School to Justice High School in 2017. Two years later, the Park Authority changed the name of JEB Stuart Park to Justice Park.

In 2021, the school board dropped plans to create a parking lot in Justice Park. FCPS had said that was needed because a planned addition at Justice High School would reduce the number of parking spaces at the school.

The parking lot proposal generated intense opposition within the surrounding community. During that time, residents researching the history of the property discovered it had been occupied by generations of Black landowners. The Park Authority acquired the parcels in the early 1960s.
