Dallas deck park set to reconnect Oak Cliff after decades of division
Dallas is just days away from opening the new Harold Simmons Bridge Park, a deck park built over I‑35E near the Dallas Zoo. The project, more than 35 years in the making, is designed to reconnect the long‑divided Oak Cliff community. Instead of a traditional ribbon‑cutting, leaders held a symbolic event highlighting unity and the park’s role in bringing neighborhoods back together.
