Southern Gateway Public Green Foundation
Historically, highways have been used to divide. This is true in Dallas where the North-South divide is carved into the asphalt by the I-30. In the Southern Sector, there is an emerging East-West divide on either side of the I-35. A plan to build a deck park over I-35 aims to unite this area in ways that spur greater connectivity and shared prosperity, not further displacement. In partnership with City, regional, and state officials, the Southern Gateway Public Green Foundation is overseeing the creation of design and construction documents for this project. This grant is for an equitable development plan to ensure that goals for local inclusion are met.
