HOUSTON (KIAH) — The Houston Parks and Recreation Department just reopened its Brock Park over the weekend in Northeast Houston.

The park was taken on by the city back in 1957. Later, it became an 18-hole golf course (now closed).The new park will now serve as adventure park featuring amenities such as a ropes course, Ninja Warrior course, Kayak/canoe launch, nature-based programming and will have upgraded security on site. The park will be the first of its kind here in Houston.

“The transformation of Brock Park into an adventure park destination is an exciting development for the City of Houston parks landscape,” Mayor Sylvester Turner said. “The amenities that will be available at the park, along with the addition of upgraded event space, will undoubtedly make Brock Park a destination stop for generations of Houstonians looking for unique entertainment options. “
