Land for Heubach Park was donated to the Town of Tuxedo by the South Winnipeg Limited and Tuxedo Estates Limited. It was named for Frederick W. Heubach, the first Mayor of Tuxedo. It was given to the Metropolitan Corporation of Greater Winnipeg in 1964. A monument in the park, dedicated on 15 July 1970, commemorates the incorporation of the Town of Tuxedo on 24 January 1913. Another monument in the park commemorates former Tuxedo Mayor David R. Finkelstein.
