Klyde Warren Park - or as it will always be known by some people, the Deck Park over Woodall Rodgers Freeway - will hold its grand opening the weekend of October 27 and 28, 2012. The weekend will be chock-full of activities and performances designed to show off just how much fun the park has in store. Multiple different organizations from the Dallas Arts District and the Dallas area will be on hand to perform at various points throughout the weekend.
