The city of Dallas owns almost 3,000 parcels of land across the city limits. Five of those will be turned into parks next year, and they'll look a lot different than what we're used to. https://t.co/ef9tD0tXWP

Urban parks are powerful instruments for building inclusive communities and dismantling systemic disparities. These parks serve as vibrant outdoor centers for promoting physical and mental well-being and provide opportunities for recreation, exercise and relaxation, while offering respite from the stresses of urban life. @DMNOpinion@DallasParkRec https://t.co/2PgEMQGJvp
