Scissortail Park is a 70-acre urban oasis extending from the core of downtown Oklahoma City to the shore of the Oklahoma River. The 40-acre Upper Park and 30-acre Lower Park are now open, and the Skydance Bridge connects the two sections. The Upper Park includes amenities and spaces for programmed events, while the Lower Park was designed to be more reflective of the natural environment around Oklahoma City. Altogether, Scissortail Park offers 70 acres of educational and recreational activities for Oklahoma City residents and visitors.
