This project will begin design and construction on Mann’s Crossing Park on the Medina River, Hendrick Arnold Park (Straus medina), Trueheart Ranch, and Espada Park. Updates to these properties will lead to additional public spaces on park land adjacent to the Medina River and the San Antonio River. The SARA team will develop a minimum viable product to attract early customers/visitors. This will allow the River Authority to develop a schematic design and begin building the park using this design and existing master plan documents.
