Milam Park is a beautiful and historic facility located in the heart of downtown San Antonio with a long history. By 1885, water pipes and sidewalks had been installed and trees planted, beginning the development of Milam Park as we know it today. In 2001, the construction of the Milam Park Fountain was completed with a $60,000 gift from Friends of Milam Park. 8 years late, a barrier-free inclusive playground replaced the children’s playscape from the mid-1990s with funds raised by the San Antonio Parks Foundation.
