Great vista in this downtown park. It appears to be in a courtyard surrounded by tall buildings. It’s a place to sit under many shade trees and people watch as the walk through the park. Sometimes I spot people playing soccer, football and frisbee. The grass in this park is green and inviting
Very beautiful park. Nice cool shade trees. I like the outdoors but Texas heat, one can barely get out to enjoy the city or it’s nature scene. Walking along this park, the shade trees offer much cooler temps or so it seems. There a little brook that runs alongside. The sounds of the running water as it cascades along is peaceful.

This park is very new. It opened on May 7th. It is a huge hit. There are water shows. Two to be exact. The park is rather big considering it’s downtown. They provide parking spaces for visitors.

There is a couple of basketball courts, a path that runs the entire length of the park and surrounds the park as well. There is a beautiful view of downtown Dallas. The grass consists of beautiful greenery.

Wonderful park situated in downtown Dallas. It’s located across from the Omni Dallas Hotel. Very peaceful. I see a huge mass of iron. There are chairs for sitting and thinking as this iron mass moves around the circle. I refer to it as a sundial. However it’s far from being a sundial. It make s a complete revolution every day. As I sit there, I can hear it move, minute by minute. I generally visit three times a day to see where the sundial has moved. It’s an amazing piece of art work.

I was walking down Market Street in downtown Dallas. I stumbled upon a street park nestled between a few buildings. It's about a block in area, but it holds lots of beauty.

I sat and admired the beautiful contents. Trees, lilies, flowers. It also has a water table with water spurting upward. Suddenly and unexpectedly, the water became misty and i was sprayed eith the coolness of the mist. I gasped.

There are swings and plenty of seating for the many visitors. The swings were occupied with, what seem like, lovers enjoying each others company.

Late evenings, the sun is perched behind a 5 story apartment building. The air is cool. The park is inviting as many visitors stopped by to admire its beauty.

The park has a calming effect on me and I'm sure others. I could sit for hours. I sat for hours.

It's a wonder.
