Kyle hosts La Verde and Cultural Trail groundbreaking and street fair

KYLE, TEXAS – The community is invited to join the City of Kyle for the La Verde Park and Cultural Trail Groundbreaking and Street Fair on Thursday, July 15 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the intersection of Doherty and Burnham.

The event will offer community members an opportunity to learn more about the unique features that will be included in La Verde Park and the Cultural Trail as well as provide attendees a preview of how the park will be used as an event lawn and community gathering space.

During the event, there will be a live street fair with food trucks, market vendors, live music, interactive art, and more.

La Verde Park will be a 1.6-acre park and event lawn for community gatherings of up to 2,200 people, with market spaces, interactive water features, and a world-class playground.

The Cultural Trail will be a shaded 1,200- linear-foot pedestrian and bike trail lined with artwork by local artists and information about Kyle’s history that will eventually connect the Heroes Memorial and La Verde Park.

La Verde Park and Cultural Trail is a part of the first phase of The Brick and Mortar District, a 138-acre pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use development within the Plum Creek master-planned community.

The Brick and Mortar District is partially funded through the Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) #2, which was established in 2018.

The City of Kyle approved a Strategic Framework Plan to guide funding decisions within the district in 2020 and identified a central park and trail as a priority.

The La Verde Park and Cultural Trail Groundbreaking and Street Fair will take place at the intersection of Doherty and Burnham. Event attendees may park at the Hays CISD Performing Arts Center, 979 Kohlers Crossing.
