The new public park being built in the Near Southside’s Leuda-May neighborhood on an assemblage of land around Jennings, Leuda, St. Louis, and Cannon is starting to look more like a park. Paths are being poured and streetlights have gone up. West Leuda Park is said to be the first new public park in the urban core of Fort Worth in decades, and should be a welcome addition for one of the Near Southside’s less-redeveloped areas as infill occurs. It is adjacent to such existing developments as the Leuda-May Apartments and the Hattie May Inn, and just down the street from the Rahr Brewery.
