No, they didn't. They actually thought of decking the Woodall Rodgers freeway decades before Discovery Green was built.

Give props where due and quit tryna make everything in Dallas sub-par.,and as for disco- green having a parking lot under it...now that's whats not unique...We have more than one park with parking under it in dtd. See you cant just replace a parking lot with a park without accomidating the cars that USED to park there every day. So they just kill two birds with one stone....build the park and just move the parking underground...now everyones happy.
errr... Phoenix off the top of my head. and theirs is decades old.. were just stating the facts, its nothing new or groundbreaking anymore. maybe 50 years ago.

Discovery Green, Millineum Park, and Central Park were all studied as models for Klyde Warren. No matter how you put it, Discovery Green did play somewhat of an influential role.

Yes, When it comes to design. What park doesn't take some elements of another park and put it into its design?

Point is hunny booboo you can't knock off a Texas park and then claim yours to be the most unique in Texas.
You basically copied Disco Green, then all of a sudden it's unique?
