This would allow full funding for match commitments for Council District 3 A.J.

The extra $147.5M would bring an additional Council District 5 Brian Spencer $301M in private and other governmental funds.

  • Southern Gateway Deck Park

    Southern Gateway Deck Park

    Southern Gateway Deck Park Southern Gateway Deck Park Overview The Southern Gateway Deck Park is a 5.5-acre park in the Oak Cliff neighborhood that will be constructed over a section of I-35 and connect the Dallas Zoo to the surrounding neighborhoods. The park will provide green space and recreational areas, while repairing connections that have long been severed by the highway. Work is already underway on the highway improvements that accompany the project, but the timeline for the park’s construction is unclear. The park is expected to cost approximately $40 million, $7.1 million of which is coming from Dallas City Bond funding. Image: ojb.com Why It’s Important With construction underway, it might seem like the chance to influence this project has come and gone. But the impact of this deck park will be felt throughout the surrounding neighborhoods, and thinking about this project in true multidisciplinary fashion will allow the City to fully harness the potential of this development. As Dallas’ second freeway deck park, following the success of Kyle Warren Park downtown, the Southern Gateway brings the chance to replicate successful formula throughout the City. This park would help connect an established residential neighborhood with the thriving Bishop Arts District, and improve equity in access to recreational amenities. Moreover, this project improves development potential near an existing light rail station, creating opportunities for transit-oriented development growth in new centers.
