The conservancy renews the natural environment, promotes play, health and wellness, economic vitality and mobility, and engages the community through outreach, education, cultural events, and the arts.

Programs

Once complete, waterloo greenway will be a 35 acre, 1.5-mile park system of connected green space that will be home to a wild array of natural and cultural destinations. A significant public-private partnership between the city of austin and waterloo greenway conservancy, this park is being planned, designed, and built in a series of geographic milestones. Symphony square, waterloo park, and moody amphitheater are now open. Construction of the confluence began in 2023.

Expenses: $2.6M

Expenses: $916K

Waterloo greenway's non-arts programming includes partnership-based healthy living/fitness classes and a community engagement program. Fitness classes are offered at the park throughout the spring and summer. The community engagement program operates year-round to raise citywide awareness and ensure that residents in all 10 council districts have opportunities to engage with and benefit from the project.
