Magnolia Green is a one-acre public park at the center of the Magnolia Green mixed-use development.   The park was completed in conjunction with the 17 townhouse on the park’s western edge, and is also bordered by the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders on its southern edge.  Magnolia Green provides the Near Southside with a large park suitable for special events as well as informal recreational use.  The most popular special event at the park is First Friday on the Green, a monthly live music picnic series presented by FWSI in partnership with the Fort Worth Weekly and a group of community-minded sponsors and vendors.  Other events at the park includes Joe’s Run, a 5K and 10K race benefiting Samaritan House, and a summertime music series presented by Broadway Baptist Church.
