This new park is a welcome addition to downtown. Bathrooms seemed clean. Playground was small- two climbing structures and a slide. I'm looking forward to going to a concert in May at the outdoor amphitheatre.

An amazingly beautiful and tranquil park in the heart of the city! Walking trails, garden landscaping, playground, tons of space to relax!

This park is just beautiful. Took friends from out of town and we enjoyed the walk. A well put together landscape and facilities.

Beautiful park, excellent landscaping, open spaces, convenient parking on the street or spacious garage, and very family friendly. They also have a wooden deck and chairs, tables where you can have a meal comfortably shaded underneath very large trees. Highly recommended to visit especially if you grab a meal from a local food truck, can come here to picnic and hang out.

Part of the Waterloo Greenway in the Waller Creek district. Beautiful urban park with a meandering hike and bike trail. It's filled with wildflowers and native plants and trees. Features the Moody Amphitheater for outdoor events and festivals.

I recently visited waterloo park and had a refreshing experience. The park was clean and well maintained, with plenty of open spaces and greenery. I enjoyed a picnic on the lawn, and the playground was perfect for kids. I also attended a special event in the park, it was well organised and enjoyable. I highly recommend this park to anyone looking for a relaxing place to enjoy nature and spend time with family and friends.

Beautiful location to have great walks. Super clean, even the bathrooms with a lot of transit due to it being used as a hub for taking the shuttles to the F1 race.

Great combination of walking trails right In the middle of downtown, the designs and architecture that went into here is amazing. Lots of water fountains even for the dogs.

I just love this place so much! Cool use of natives and adopted natives. Serene setting steps from the Capitol. The creative and modern use of water is amazing.

Wow! This park is nice. The landscaping is out right beautiful. The walkway wind back and forth up to different levels with changing views of the park and skyline. Play areas kids and adults are part of the scape. The designers, architects, and gardeners really do shine with the work done here. Maintenance in all areas are super. Bravo and a must see experience.

Still a fair amount of construction is going on.
The Light show was rather short this year, but I can't complain if it's free!

Very cool park. Nice walking paths, some shaded some not, they have a nice stage amphitheater area with events, and love the different things to see and do. The playground looked well maintained and nice looking architecture to see while walking.

We went to The Used/A Day to Remember show on 10/18. This was our first time at this outdoor venue, and it was a perfect afternoon/evening for it. There's a garage near by, just feet away from the back entrance, but we parked off of 7th St about 0.8 miles away. Since it was after 6pm on a Tuesday, parking was free (plus we didn't know about the garage). The merch tables were outside the main entrance, but we were allowed to take everything inside, even though the venue did have some bag-size limitations. Security was light and quick. No vapes or large bags were allowed, but there were plenty of both. Drinks were outrageous @ $14 per; I didn't price the food. The entire bar staff was stupid friendly, maybe because the lowest preset tip amount on plastic was 18% (which you can adjust). The bathroom lines were a bit long and I was told there were only two (2×2), which seems really low for a place this size. The pit was small for the crowd, but looked fun from where we were. The foldable seats are brought in and placed directly on the grass; which is fine, if they, too, weren't also small, not that anyone sat for long. We shuffled out around 10pm without any hassle from anyone. Even though I was a little worried walking back to the car at that hour/distance without the company of my concert-goers, surrounded by the homeless, Austin is a pretty chill town, even at that time of night.

ADTR was amazing. Great environment, great people, and beautiful city.
Will definitely make the trip out again for another concert.

Beautiful park. We where in line to take the shuttle to the F1 Races. It was the most enjoyable waiting time of my life. On top we got to see all the monarch butterflies that are in migration.

Great venue; easy to get merch, drinks, and snacks! Drinks are expensive as normal concert prices go at $15 beers and parking was easy in the garages nearby

This is an Austin must see if you have time or you can find it in your schedule for an event beautiful surroundings in a nice serene Urban environment wonderful percussions for the music echoes all around and if you don't have money to get into an event you can catch the signs and sounds from neighboring vantage points all around Austin is good for everybody even when you can't afford to get in by the tickets I just sold out. As I say in Austin if there's a will God be it there's a way.
