HOUSTON – Hermann Park Conservatory broke ground on Feb. 22 on McWilliams Dog Park .
When complete, the park will feature areas for small and large dogs, play equipment and interactive water features, a dog wash station, natural shade and surface parking.
McWilliams Dog Park, named in honor of a $1 million donation from Laura and Brad McWilliams, who have a passion for fostering and rescuing dogs, is intended to increase access to Hermann Park and flow into its existing public spaces.
