The community park complex is expected to break ground later this year, and construction is estimated to be completed in 2025.
Fair Park First revealed its final design for the 18-acre community park complex coming to Fair Park.
The park is the first phase of the Fair Park Your Park campaign and the updated Fair Park Master Plan. The complex is expected to break ground in November 2023, and construction is projected to be completed in 2025. It will feature a dog park, outdoor café, ecological gardens, picnic areas, a market grove and a central lawn. The community park will also have Wi-Fi and offer scheduled activities and classes for residents in the surrounding communities.
“Mayor Johnson has made parks one of his major priorities for 2023,” Dallas Park and Recreation board presidentsaid in a statement. “Public-private partnerships will have to be the cornerstone for this initiative. The Dallas Parks and Recreation Board is thrilled to help build a new 18-acre Community Park with our partner Fair Park First. The design team for this is world-class, and the process has been very inclusive.
“It’s certainly not lost on us that the site that over 80% of the citizens that live in the surrounding area chose for this park was big enough to accommodate the very diverse program that they asked for, and also the site where over 350 minority homes were displaced in the '60s and '70s,” Luallen . “That certainly left a deep scar in the surrounding community. The idea that this will become a part of the future, but that it is also a space that acknowledges the past, I think, is very profound.”
