The park is located between St. Paul Street and Harwood Street, north of Pacific Avenue in the City Center District, and opened to the public Oct. 14, 2019.

The site is one of the larger open areas in the City Center District and had been eyed for several projects in the past.

In 1985 RepublicBank Corp., one of the largest banks in the Southwest and owner of the adjacent Republic Center, announced plans to construct a 60-story, 1,400,000-square-foot (130,000 m2) building designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill.

The $250 million complex would have also contained a three-story retail center surrounding a rotunda, landscaped courtyards and formal gardens.
