The Hemisfair Park Area Redevelopment Corporation (HPARC) was created by City Council in 2009 to redevelop the former site of the 1968 World’s Fair in San Antonio, Texas. HPARC is dedicated to the transformation of Hemisfair into a sustainable, self-funded urban district with residences, local businesses, unique programming and three parks—Yanaguana Garden, Civic Park (Phase II) and Tower Park (Ph

ase III). Hemisfair is where San Antonio meets: it is a vibrant gathering place for a day with friends and the city’s biggest celebrations. HPARC is a 501(c)3 local government corporation, supported in part by the Hemisfair Conservancy, an independent 501(c)3.

Exciting news! 🗞️

Civic Park has earned an Honor Award in the General Design Category from the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA)! 🌳

"Civic Park at Hemisfair has become a vibrant, multi-generational urban oasis that reconnects the city to its public spaces," noted the Awards Jury. "The integration of topography, water features, and programmatic flexibility effectively balances ecological stewardship, play, and large-scale events."

As the largest park in Hemisfair, Civic Park's high-quality design and unique spaces reference and preserve history while incorporating P3 development that brings new offerings and amenities to our downtown area. ♥️

We are honored to be one of only 10 projects recognized in the General Design Category from hundreds of submissions throughout the United States and the world. Congrats to all the winners for their extraordinary contributions to their communities and landscape architecture.

As we continue to build one of the World's Great Public Places, we are focused on creating places that our community can enjoy today and for generations to come.
