I figured out what you mean, however I would argue that our other parks are great the way that they are. The natural aspect is just as important as a place like Republic Square or Butler Park. I wouldn't want to see Zilker changed. Auditorium Shores has undergone a change and blends together with Butler Park better than it had before so I would say that it is activated. It's great to have some parks that have paved lighted sidewalks, and primmed gardens but I don't want all of our parks that way.
