Join ULI Austin Young Leaders for a guided tour of the recently re-imagined Waterloo Park, led by key project team members. At a mighty 11 acres, Waterloo Park, features a variety of unique spaces to immerse yourself in nature in the heart of downtown Austin. Spaces that reflect the landscapes of Austin and Central Texas, including hill country gardens with oaks and native plantings, wetland spaces that create places for play and relaxation, expansive lawns for gathering and activities, more than a mile and a half of trails within the park, and a 5,000-person-capacity Moody Amphitheater. Project team members will share their vision for protected land and park development, as well as behind-the-scenes stories about the transformation of this community park.
