Bates Street Park in Old Town Keller will be open to the public later this fall, city officials posted on Facebook.

The details

The new park is adjacent to the Keller History Museum and features outdoor seating, a pavilion with a stage, open lawn areas and a climbing feature for young children.

A ribbon cutting for the park's opening is scheduled to be part of the Date Night in Park event on Oct. 5, city officials said in a social media message. The final touches, like power being connected, are still in progress.

Construction began in October 2023, and the $734,300 project was funded by the Keller Development Corporation, according to city documents.
