Zilker Park Gateway Project

The Zilker Park Gateway Project (ZPGP) is an initiative to beautify the medians on Barton Springs Road between Lamar and Zilker Park. Laura Joseph and Mary Ann Neely founded The ZPGP in 2009, and under their leadership, Zilker neighbors and local businesses joined forces in a common cause to transform these medians and to bring beauty to this much used thoroughfare.

The Austin Parks Foundation now supports the ZPGP by giving a matching donation to what the ZPGP raises (this matching donation comes directly from ACL funds to the Foundation). Through this support the medians have taken on a whole new look with brick pathways, mowed areas, native plants and flowers, and much more.

Our fundraising goal is to continue making the Zilker Park gateway medians more beautiful than ever. These medians are the center piece for our neighborhood and create a welcoming burst of color for business patrons, neighbors, and even those just driving down Barton Springs (not to mention ACL festival goers). It is through the joint financial support of businesses and neighborhood residents that this project is sustained.

Join the cause! Your tax-deductible donations will go directly to the costs of plants, fertilizer, irrigation, gardening supplies, and our wonderful Darla, who maintains the median gardens
