Overview

Five-acre bridge park spanning I-35E in Southern Dallas — managed by the Southern Gateway Public Green Foundation as a community gathering place reconnecting historic Oak Cliff neighbourhoods.

What I did

  • Built the Next.js + Sanity site with full multi-locale support via next-intl and Sanity document-internationalization — every page renders under a `[locale]` segment with translated content
  • Shipped content sections for Impact, Leadership, FAQs, Connect, Donate, Rules, Accessibility, and Menus — each with its own typed schema and component
  • Integrated react-pdf and pdfjs-dist for in-browser viewing of park rules, accessibility statements, and menu PDFs without forcing downloads
  • Built the Instagram feed component for the news page and a temperature-data widget surfacing live park conditions
  • Wired the SendGrid contact form and language switcher with consistent button styling across the bilingual site

Outcome

Delivered a bilingual, content-rich civic site that lets the foundation publish park rules, leadership updates, donation flows, and event news to the Oak Cliff community without engineering involvement.

Building something similar?

I take on Sanity CMS + Next.js builds for startups and agencies. Typical engagements ship a polished marketing site or headless rebuild in 3–6 weeks.
