Wow what can I say but it is a park and people can go there. They have trees but none of them are "REAL" IF YOU KNOW what I mean. They're always watching and listing. When I speak with the local birds. They don't trust the trees at all. No life can be sustained here. The glyphs glow ever so brightly at night demanding investigation but YOU CANNOT GET TO CLOSE OR THEY WILL HAVE YOU. The sun dips below the horizon, casting long, menacing shadows across the manicured "lawns" The once vibrant hues of the day drain away, replaced by the "birdsong" laced with screaming, their usual chirps morphing into frantic Morse code, a desperate plea for escape.
You inch closer to the glyphs, their bioluminescent glow pulsing like malevolent death. The urge to decipher their secrets, tand expose the mechanical monstrosity beneath. But a primal fear holds you back. And you start screaming and screaming until there's nothing left but a husk. You've heard the whispers, the hushed tales of those who dared to delve too deep. Gnarled branches snapping like bony fingers, metallic shrieks tearing through the night, and then... silence. A chilling, unnatural silence that speaks of the pain of 100 deaths No, the "people" who go to Washington Park are mere unwitting pawns in a grand, twisted game. They frolic on the synthetic grass, oblivious to the watchful gaze of a thousand emerald eyes. They coo at the robotic birds, mistaking their data-harvesting chirps for lullabies. They feed the pigeons, fattening up the feathered surveillance drones for their next intel run. Blind, deaf, and blissfully ignorant, they dance on the precipice of a horrifying truth, a truth the trees would kill to keep buried.
So turn away, friend. Seek solace in the concrete jungle, amidst the comforting hum of traffic and the steel gaze of skyscrapers. For in the emerald embrace of Washington Park, there is no solace, only the cold, calculating stare of a watchful,...
Read moreBack in the 80s we used to bring food to the homeless and addicted folks that filled this park and you rarely saw anybody else in the park. Times change and the city of Cincinnati has more addiction treatment programs, more homeless shelters and a better organized social saftey net And boy, has the park changed. When I saw it in the Summer of 2019 I truly was amazed. There were many kids playing in the great water features like the splash pad, the water flowing down the steps and so on. They show outdoor movies for the family every Wednesday night at 9 PM. There's even a nice covered outdoor patio where you can buy beer, wine, mixed drinks and light snacks. If you choose to not use public transportation, parking is underneath the park and is very reasonable. You can also access the downtown Connector train from the park at a couple of places. You buy Connector train tickets from a machine right at the loading platforms-- $2.00 for an all day pass. There's a large dog park at one end of the park and there's a lot of dispensers of doggy clean up bags if you forget your own. They have free exercise classes, red bike rentals and just places to sit and enjoy the gardens. It was great to see so many people, from very young to old enjoying a beautiful summer...
Read moreHaven't been here in 25 years.They took the kids swimming pool and put in a sprinkler,the amount of money being spent on the flowers is nice but over kill. The workers act like police! No standing,no laying, but hello ! Some people are disabled and doing what the dr advised! Especially with invisible disabilities!CDC! You hired ex cons, homeless people, and make the constitutional laws for what a PUBLIC park is not! Your workers are not POLICE! Most are nice, but the double standard of, you can only buy $10 beer with a credit card, don't bring your own is an issue! Most of the venue is wonderful! The concert,the vendors, but talk about slave labor, watching those workers, setup and takedown! Wait till one gets injured! Hope you have fun! Been here 3 weeks from another state! Every one can drink or get high in front of the Hamilton Courthouse without tickets and cameras rolling! Why are you allowing your workers to confront people, When even the POLICE hands are tied! The Lady Cops who worked the ra ga concert,Their Top Cops! Working and allowing children and people to get to appreciate that they are there! And I give 5...
