Creation of Alabonson Park

Harris County is the recipient of a $1 million urban outdoor grant for its Alabonson Sports and Nature Center park is located in northwest Houston.  The park includes a football field, softball fields, a soccer field, pavilion with picnic tables, playground, cable run for the blind, native landscaping, a butterfly garden, irrigation, utilities and bike racks.

Alabonson Park was made possible through a joint collaboration with former City of Houston District A Council person, Brenda Stardig, current City of Houston District A Council person, Amy Peck,  R. Jack Cagle, Harris County Commissioner Precinct 4, Rodney Ellis, Harris County Precinct 1, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, and Near Northwest Management District.

InfoRMATION

Funding was made available through a $2 million appropriation in Harris County Precinct 4 Park Bond funds, a $1-million grant from Texas Park & Wildlife, and the land donation from the City of Houston. We also received a gift from the State of Qatar in the amount of $1.3 million that has been designated for Alabonson Park. Groundbreaking and major construction began August 5, 2019.

Development of this 50.21-acre multi-use park was facilitated by a Local Parks Grant from TPWD, and includes lighted soccer, softball and football fields, parking lots, maintenance facilities, picnic areas, playgrounds, paved multi-use trails and natural surface trails.

Approximately 50.21 acres were transformed into a family-centric venue where anyone can come enjoy soccer, football or softball games as a spectator or participant.  There are hike-and-bike trails, concessions, a butterfly garden and a small meeting room where neighborhood organizations can conduct Scout and other community meetings. In addition, planned programs specifically designed for all age groups will be offered.

Alabonson Park offers ample parking and feature a visible law enforcement presence by Precinct 1 Sheriff's Deputies, and Precinct 1 Parks Department staff present onsite during normal operating hours.

Alabonson Park is the cornerstone for neighboring communities from which local families are benefiting.
