About the Eastern Glades:
Clay Family Eastern Glades reclaims 100 acres of previously inaccessible parkland. This project significantly expands picnicking; adds new parking and restrooms; establishes 5 ½-acre Hines Lake and wetlands; provides trails, boardwalks and opportunities to experience and learn about natural habitat systems; and honors the Park’s military history. Inspired by the original 1930s Master Plan for Memorial Park by landscape architects Hare & Hare, the Eastern Glades provides something for everyone – from runners on the Seymour Lieberman Trail to picnicking families to students of ecology and those interested in Houston’s and the nation’s cultural history.
This is the first major project of the Ten-Year Plan, which enables the Conservancy to accelerate the design and construction of significant components of the Memorial Park Master Plan and was made possible by a $70-million catalyst gift from the Kinder Foundation. Execution of the Ten-Year Plan is overseen by the Memorial Park Standards Committee, a partnership comprised of Houston Parks and Recreation Department, the Kinder Foundation, Memorial Park Conservancy, and Uptown Development Authority.
