Be part of Woody Branch
Trust for Public Land (TPL) and Dallas Park and Recreation Department are thrilled to begin designing an 82-acre park in Glen Oaks, the heart of District 4, right along the beautiful Woody Branch of Five Mile Creek. This park is part of the Five Mile Creek Urban Greenbelt Master Plan—a vision to create parks and natural spaces across Oak Cliff.
12th Street Promenade Case Study
The Woody Branch Park project is proposing a bridge over the creek. The 12th Street Promenade is a pedestrian pathway in the heart of Halperin Park that rejoins a once-vital municipal thoroughfare. More importantly, the Promenade will include a walk of fame that serves as an engaging and educational stroll through the past, offering visitors the opportunity to learn about citizens who defined Oak Cliff's dramatic past, vibrant present and bold future.
