Do you LOVE your local park? Do you wish there were more bike trails in your community?


The topic of our June 23rd program will focus on the main topic we heard from Fort Worthians in our Community Vision Survey -- Parks, Trails & Greenspace.


Join us for a focused conversation on the Parks and Trails in Fort Worth! What is coming down the pipeline for our city? What can our citizens do to activate their community parks and green spaces? Find out at this next Urban Design Talk!


Join the conversation around:

  • The history of Fort Worth's planning efforts around Parks, Trails & Greenspace.

  • What Fort Worthians are saying about the public open spaces in our community.

  • The evolution of organizations like Streams & Valleys and plans like the Fort Worth Active Transportation Plan.

  • The focus of the City of Fort Worth's planning efforts around open space - and some of the difficulties around implementing these efforts.

  • The important choices being made between designing open spaces that are beautiful, functional, accessible, and that manage public funding well.

  • Resources and opportunities for planners and community organizers to influence our community's parks trails and greenspace.

  • What makes open space successful - why some spaces are used and others are not.

  • Innovative opportunities for Fort Worth's parks, trails & green spaces.
