Better Block @ Bachman Lake

We were thrilled to partner with Bachman Lake Together and Lumin Education in Dallas, Texas. Our plan was to reimagine a parking lot, reallocate 45 parking spots based on community input, and bring it to life. The opening day on June 1, 2024, showcased placemaking elements like a traffic garden, Wikiblock furniture, local vendors, live artists, and musicians, all designed to create a more vibrant and engaging space for everyone to enjoy.
Our favorite moments included watching the kids enjoy all the activities, such as the traffic garden, trampoline path, and bubbles, and seeing them enjoy the space with their families. The anticipation and excitement as they waited in line to check in underscored the evident need for a space and event like this within the community. The turnout showcased a keen interest in and appetite for activations at Bachman Lake Together, fostering and maintaining numerous partnerships and possibilities.
Thank you to our sponsors, The Dallas Foundation and Child Poverty Action Lab.
