THE TRINITY RIVER PROJECT

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?

For the second time in less than 10 years the voters of Dallas have approved moving forward with an ambitious public works project designed to transform our city.   Recent debates have focused a lot on the road and a little on the downtown park, but, what else is going on?  When can  we expect to see a change in the corridor? 

Speaker - Jill Jordan, Assistant City Manager - City of Dallas
