Since 1953, Audubon Park has been steadily growing with additions such as arboretum (1957) and Magnolia Gardens (1958). They also relocated rose gardens from elsewhere on campus to their new place in Audubon Park.
In 1964 the construction of what is now called The Goldsmith Civic Garden Center began which provided office spaces for administration officials along with having an auditorium for holding events inside one part while another held a water-themed space. This complex would later be expanded to include an additional auditorium and gift shop.
