PARK(ing) Day comes to Dallas

The City of Dallas is participating in its 7th annual PARK(ing) Day from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m on Friday, September 15. This unique event will transform Main Street into a linear park for the day.

PARK(ing) Day is a worldwide event that turns street parking spaces into mini parks often themed by local businesses. Where cars would normally park, visitors will find downtown employees and residents socializing in these public spaces. Over 30 parking spaces will be used and turned into picnic areas, playgrounds, mini golf courses, and even libraries.

The City of Dallas’ Planning and Urban Design and Mobility and Streets Services departments, and the Dallas Public Library will have “Parklets” as part of the event.
