Trinity Park Conservancy

THROWBACK THURSDAY 📸✨

Your photo contest entries? Still obsessed.
🌅 The Trinity River Floodway never looked better than through your lenses—those golden hour shots and wildlife moments were pure perfection.

Keep tagging us in your Trinity photos! Let's keep the beauty rolling. 💚

Just as so many have fought to protect us, we carry forward that devotion by protecting the land we steward. This Memorial Day, we pause to remember, honor, and give thanks. 🇺🇸🌿

Turtles have roamed this earth since the time of the dinosaurs, yet today many species face extinction. Check out this amazing turtle right here on the Trinity River levees — proof that nature is thriving in our own backyard! 🌊🐢

It takes a village to protect a river. 🤝🌿 Trinity River Crew is a joint Conservation Corps program of Greenspace Dallas and Trinity Park Conservancy — and in just a few weeks, the 2026 crew officially begins on June 16th!

We couldn't be more proud of what this team represents.

💚

This is your sign to get outside! 🌿🌷

The Trinity River Levee Trails are bursting with wildflowers right now and it is absolutely breathtaking. Lace up your shoes, grab a friend, and come take it all in. Nature this beautiful shouldn't be kept a secret! 🌸 Visit the map on our website, tpcdallas.org

Did you know? 🌊 The Trinity River stretches over 700 miles across Texas, making it the longest river entirely within the state! And right here in Dallas, it flows through one of the largest urban floodplain parks in the United States. 🤯

We don't just celebrate Earth Day. We build for it. 🌿

Trinity Park Conservancy is leading the creation of Harold Simmons Park, 250 acres of green space along the Trinity River, right in the heart of Dallas. Because every Dallasite, at every age, deserves access to nature.

Together with Greenspace Dallas, the Trinity River Crew puts local high schoolers to work doing real conservation: restoring habitats, monitoring water quality, and studying wetlands. And through our partnership with Wesley-Rankin Community Center, that connection spans generations — from 5th and 6th graders in the Conservation Crew uncovering the ecology of their own neighborhood, to Casa Feliz seniors exploring the Trinity River on guided nature walks.

From the classroom to the riverbank, we're making sure every Dallas resident — at every age — has a relationship with nature. That's not just Earth Day. That's every day. 💚

We Have Exciting News! 🏆

We are thrilled to share that Harold Simmons Park officially took home the ULI Dallas-Fort Worth Award for Shaping Successful Cities and Regions! 📍✨

In the Shaping Successful Cities and Regions category, Harold Simmons Park West Overlook was recognized as a truly transformative effort. Through extensive collaboration across public, private, community, and philanthropic partners, the project promises generational change by enhancing environmental outcomes, health, equity, and economic investment in a formerly underserved area.

A huge thank you to ULI Dallas-Fort Worth and a special thanks to our incredible project team, The Beck Group, Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates Inc, wernerfield, Lake Flato Architects and supporters helping us make this vision a reality.

Building Harold Simmons Park is about more than just infrastructure; it’s about the community moments that happen right now. We loved partnering with Wesley-Rankin Community Center for this special day! 💙
