I love it how people try to turn something that will be great for the city of Dallas into a Dallas bashing contest.

But it wouldnt be CD if it wasnt that way.

Lol, Dallas tell us how your economy is one of the most diverse in the world and your fashion industry is on par with Paris and Milan?

BTW Renaud, Houston already has 2 parks that size. The article posted said that the Trinity project is gonna be 6000 acres of forest, GB and Cullen park are both larger
What ?

There are several in the US that are bigger.

That being said, this is still awesome for Dallas. Seems like the city is growing in amenities and getting better by the second. If only it had a great research university, then I think it'd complete a pretty good package.
that Wiki Article list the Trinity River park at 3000K

so are they extending it or something???

If not, then according to Wiki it is the 34th largest in the US

Au Contraire!
It is only when people post false or misleading stuff when they get railed into by non trolls.

Sorry Justme, when someone next posts a misleading thread about Dallas, I will smile and say, you go Dallas.

It is good that y'all are building this wonderful project, it is a very good thing.
Just don't exaggerate. Let the project speak for itself.

Said the pot to the kettle. Your the one going around putting words in peoples mouths and amplifying things that one or two delousional posters write (like the fashion/Paris/Milan thing that you keep posting).

Of course when he posts things that are very pro Houston and exaggerated (which he does often), you are strangely silent or you go along with it. Dont dish out what you are also guilty of.

But I digress, this is a nice project for the city to have.
