Ben Lednicky Park

Ben Lednicky built a career with the Texas Highway Department after graduating from Texas A&M University in 1937, dedicating his work to the development, design, and construction of Texas roadside parks and to vegetation management. As one of the first landscape architects employed by TxDOT, he helped develop standards for roadside parks, vegetation conservation, and erosion control that are still used today. His work can be seen in parks across Texas from the Big Bend to the Panhandle, and he retired in 1976 after 39 years of meritorious service.
