A unique new play area for children is coming to Brackenridge Park and will replace a long-closed playground.
Why it matters: The nature-based playscape — a first for San Antonio — will be the first project to undergo new development guidelines in the park that stemmed from uproar over the 2017 bond project and plans to cut down trees.
It’s also the first major project that Chris Maitre, the new CEO at the Brackenridge Park Conservancy, will oversee.
What they’re saying: The playscape will fill an underused space and be geared toward “a population that we’re really underserving, which is the youth of San Antonio,” Maitre tells Axios.
