Klyde Warren Park has bridged the Woodall Rodgers Freeway since 2012, 5.4 acres of green laid over three blocks of traffic. Named for Klyde Warren, the young son of billionaire Kelcy Warren, the park was made possible in part by a $10 million donation toward its development. Though open to everyone, it is operated by the private Woodall Rodgers Park Foundation and keeps hours from 6am to 11pm, unlike other public parks within the city.
The park is constructed above a below-grade section of the freeway for three blocks between Pearl Street and St. Paul Street, and it connects the Dallas Arts District to other areas, serving as a central public gathering space. Designed by The Office of James Burnett, the landscape mixes active and passive zones: children's parks and reading spaces, fountains, game areas, and dog parks. In the center you can find a 6,000-square-foot (560 m2) restaurant and performance stage designed by Thomas Phifer and Partners.
Your route from here could take you through reading spaces, fountains, game areas, and dog parks, ending at the Thomas Phifer stage above the freeway hidden below.
