Denman Estate Park is the name of a city park located in northwest San Antonio, Texas, USA.

Overview

The 21 acre public park was purchased by the City of San Antonio, and was part of the estate of attorney Gilbert J. Denman Jr., grandson of Leroy G. Denman, lawyer and jurist of the

Texas Supreme Court.[1]

Notably, the park contains a "gift from South Korea to the people of San Antonio",

sister cities. Architects were Yu Chang Byung and Hong Hee Lee, and the Korean firm Namkwang Construction Co., have been involved with the $1.2 million project, since its inception. The City of Kwangju provided half of those funds, while Namkwang Construction Co. also contributed to the project.[3]
