Details
Burnett Park is a quiet oasis in the hustle and bustle of Downtown Fort Worth. This beautiful, three-acre urban park was designed by renowned landscape architect Peter Walker and serves as a Downtown park, special event space, and public art venue.
Burnett Park improvements continue Downtown. Using grant funds from the Burnett Foundation and the City of Fort Worth, DFWII has replaced the two recreational area surfaces in Burnett Park with new, artificial turf and padding beneath. Thanks to the generosity of the Burnett Foundation and Burnett Plaza, a second deck was added to the south side of the park. This new deck increases the area available for programming and provides more room for the new park furniture. Coming soon to Burnett Park is perimeter lighting in the trees surrounding the park. These additions provide improved safety and aesthetics to the park.
