First opened in 2003, the skate park is part of Play SA, a program sponsored by the city's Parks & Recreation Department and the San Antonio Spurs to create safe play spaces.
The Northwest San Antonio skate park is just one of 40 facilities Play SA plans to revamp in the near future, MySA reports. Even so, upgrades to Spring Time Skate Plaza was by far the program's most extensive refurbishment.
The park at 6571 Spring Time Drive has everything a skateboarder could ever need, including a vert ramp, a bank and grind boxes. It's open daily from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m.
