Work has begun to convert the former 5,558 square ft. Dyas residence on Fly Creek into a visitors center for the city's new Flying Creek Nature Park.

Conversion includes new restrooms, air conditioning system, outdoor classroom, disabled access, fire sprinkler system, and other amenities to make it suitable for public use.

Watershed Llc. is the architect.

Low bidder for construction was J. Payne Org. Llc. for $853K. Completion should be early next year.

The new parking lot and nature trails being constructed simultaneously are a separate project, different contractor.
