Austin's Mueller Lake Park air quality benefits from the 139-acre former airport redevelopment's substantial greenspace and lake providing natural filtration in northeast Austin. Vehicle traffic on Manor Road and the surrounding Mueller mixed-use development contribute modest local sources, while the lake's open water geometry and the park's mature planting generally maintain good to moderate conditions and Mueller Park provides one of Austin's more pleasant urban park environments throughout most of the year.
