City Parks

[scarberiankhatru]

Toronto robbed "Peter the suburban park" to pay for "Paul the Clean and Beautiful program," so they might as well keep robbing Peter to pay for "Paul the parkette in tourist or condo zones."

Our parks in my opinion leave much to be desired and form one of the weaknesses not strengths in this city, from a design perspective to public usage to the state and condition of the designated use spaces such as sporting fields and community centres.

Don't get me wrong there are areas of strength and perhaps the haphazard informality and neglect of the assets we have may be an asset in that it invites inclusion of people at the grass-roots level in shaping the usage and design of the space.

man, those are quite the run on sentences.

you should put speed bumps on them...
