From 1st Ave....
And from 2nd Ave....
OK, so it's only like four and a half years late, but it's finally taking shape. Sure, it looks pretty crappy right now, but you shoulda seen it two weeks ago. It was just mounds of broken up pavement and trash. Last time I checked, the budget for the park was something like $9 million. Maybe that's changed, but if you'll picture in your mind's eye what this will look like when it's done, would you say the $1.3-odd million per block is well spent? I think ultimately it will be worth it, but at this point, it looks a bit like we've been sold a bill of goods, as it appears as if it's less of a park configuration and more of a traffic revision or a repaving project. Of course, there will be six blocks of this. Like I said, it will probably turn out to be quite nice. I'm guessing that they'll be done by fall.
