Austin Parks Foundation (APF), The Trail Foundation (TTF), and the City of Austin Parks and Recreation Department (PARD) are excited to announce the launch of a collaborative planning study for the future Seaholm Waterfront, the historic Seaholm Intake structure, and its surrounding parkland. The plan, which will rely heavily on public input via online platforms, stakeholder meetings and public open houses, will serve as a roadmap for future park improvements, and the repurposing of the decommissioned Seaholm Intake structures for public use and recreation.
The public is invited to attend Saturday’s public input event at any of the locations listed on the map below.
The planning phase, which will begin in late May and will be completed in the fall, will provide PARD and the City of Austin with the programming, phasing, operational and financial model to develop a world class public facility that will respect the historic significance of the Seaholm Intake structure.
The study area will span between the Pfluger Bridge and Shoal Creek, and from the lake’s edge to Cesar Chavez.
