BREAKING NEWS: A New Look for the Cedar Springs Gateway Median

The long-awaited relandscaping of the gateway median on Cedar Springs Road—spanning the entire block between the Katy Trail Overpass and Gillespie Street—is officially moving forward in a big way.

As previously reported, we’ve been eager to secure funding for this transformative project. Today, we’re thrilled to share that a donor, who wishes to remain anonymous, has graciously stepped forward to fully fund the entire endeavor. Their generosity came with just one request: a new design worthy of the term “gateway" and that we take on another project to be announced at a later date.

To deliver on that vision, we’ve partnered with LandPatterns —known for their work on several Katy Trail projects—to create a plan with a true “ah” factor, welcoming everyone who enters the corridor with beauty and impact.

Work is scheduled to begin in the next three to four weeks, weather permitting. This redesigned median will not only enhance the aesthetics of Cedar Springs Road but will also create a stunning first impression for all who pass through.

Stay tuned—we can’t wait to reveal the transformation.
