The WPA built a formal garden at the heart of Kiest Park. A pergola was built at the head of the garden in 1934 with WPA funds but fell into ruin and was cleared away. The nonprofit organization "Friends of Oak Cliff Parks" restored the historic garden and the City of Dallas rebuilt the pergola in 2014 based on the original plans, using $2 million in bond funds.

Is the pergola freestanding or attached to a structure?: Freestanding

Free to visit?: Free to the public
