Robert E. Lee Park

Lee Park is often referred to as "the Central Park of Dallas,"as "the crown jewel of the Dallas parks system," and "the centerpiece of the Turtle Creek corridor." The park is popular for parties, concerts, parades and other events. Equally important are the more casual activities such as strolls through the park, dog walking, and picnics. Everyone appreciates the lush expanse of Lee Park and the Turtle Creek greenbelt in our ever-developing neighborhood and city. However, after years of limited care and aging landscaping, the park has greatly deteriorated.

The Conservancy is now focusing on a capital campaign to transform these historic grounds into a grand park of stunning beauty for a world-class city in the 21st century. Landscape architect John Armstrong of Armstrong Berger developed the Master Plan for Phase I - "The Gardens of Lee Park" and Phase II - "The Creekside Gardens." Planned enhancements include many new plantings of trees, azaleas and seasonal color as well as an assortment of landscape features.
