Mid Cities Skatepark - Grand Prairie TX

One of two parks opened on the same stretch of highway within a week of one another.

Described at the time as the "largest skatepark in the Metroplex," Mid Cities Skatepark was opened just four days after --and four miles south of--  USA Skateboard Park in Irving.

The owners of the park were Bob Moore, Charles McDaniel, Rhea Wallace, and Chuck Kurp.

In 1979, Mid Cities added the two-story tall Sky Rapids waterslide.
