Overlook Park at River Place, Austin, Texas

---

Garcia Design, Inc. was retained by the municipal utility district and the homeowners association to guide and design improvements to the River Place neighborhood in Austin. In addition to design a native landscape for the boulevard, a new park was created from an overgrown corner lot. Trees and other vegetation were selectively removed to open up views of the valley below. A simple pathway, a swinging bench, native wildflowers and shrubs were added within the park to enhance and add diversity to existing landscape.
