In my opinion, If this had 1 slappy bar, or even one small kicker/vert, this park would have a healthier skate scene. I stop by and see little to no people ever. That's a shame for such a nice park and area. Not sure if I share the same opinion with anyone but, it seems like a lot of money went into this and it doesn't see much use.

I'd like to point out that there are ZERO pictures/videos of people skating the park. Tell me that...

What a waste of space and concrete. This park was horribly designed. There's features which have no runway up to them to conceivably use them. The big middle area is all sloped down to the center with a massive water drain the middle. Makes me mad just looking at it with all the...
