SWMD Transformation The right way for a right-of-way
Harry Hines Boulevard in the Southwestern Medical District will become the new evidence-based design model of what a medical district can be.
The impending visionary, therapeutic landscape redesign is set to transform this primary corridor within the SWMD into a vibrant, connected, and safe multi-model linear parkway, complete with a 10-acre park.
The project began in 2019 as a result of Texas Trees Foundation's Urban Heat Island Study.

“I would love to be able to have more meetings in outdoor spaces. [It is] good to get staff or clients outside of the walls to brainstorm a new idea. Immediately, a change of pace changes up the mood and flow of a meeting.”
