Visitors walking through this impressive entrance to will have a clear view of the park’s central gathering spot, The Great Lawn, which extends all the way down to The Woodlands Waterway.
Almost two football fields long and covered with lush Bermuda grass, the “free-play” space of The Great Lawn is a community gathering spot to toss a Frisbee, fly a kite, enjoy a picnic or just lay in the sun.
The Children’s Garden at Town Green Park incorporates landscape design elements with fun literary experiences to complement the neighboring South Montgomery County Library.
The east border of the park features a walkway with several comfortable nooks with circular bench seating.
Town Green Park provides a destination for Town Center visitors, as well as a venue for special events taking place in Town Center such as the Lighting of the Doves and Red, Hot and Blue Festivals. It has also become the newest spot for the water taxis that navigate The Woodlands Waterway.
