    Gerald D Hines Waterwall Park at Williams Tower

    Modified: Dec 30, 2020 by Jill Jarvis · This post may contain affiliate links · This blog generates income via ads · #sponsoredpost · 3 Comments

    Gerald D Hines Waterwall Park
    In the middle of the busy Galleria is a 64 foot tall wall of water. Across from the Galleria's tallest building, William's Tower, is Gerald D Hines Waterwall Park.

    The park has a big green space, framed with Texas Live Oaks and benches. The waterwall is the star attraction and kids can stand in the semicircle and feel like they're at the bottom of a waterfall. If there is a breeze, the kids get a little shower as they enjoy their surroundings.

    This park does not have a playground, but is a great place for a picnic. The kids can run through the grass and let their imaginations run wild at the waterwall.

    The only thing tricky with this park is parking. The Galleria Mall Nordstrom parking garage is a block away and is free. A closer option is the Williams Tower parking garage, but you have to pay for it.

    Still, if you haven't been to Gerald D Hines Waterwall Park, make the trip to see it. Bring the stroller so you can park a little distance away, and enjoy Houston's 64 foot water wall!

    Address: 2800 S. Post Oak Boulevard in the Galleria

      We park at the Galleria and walk. We also bring a ball or frisbee to kick/throw around. Pretty sure I've seen a sign that says to not do that but no one has said anything so far :).

      […] Gerald D. Hines Waterwall – Don’t be afraid to get a little wet when exploring. The water wall, standing in the shadow of the Williams Tower by the Galleria, is 64 feet of ever-falling water that makes you feel like you’re in Bruce Wayne’s Batcave. Map it. […]
