<br />The Park and Recreation Department would like to emphasize the scale and importance of this park to the adjacent community and
<br />to the region. This goal is to be accomplished through the design of beautiful, well-balanced pedestrian and vehicular entrances.
<br />The entrances will link the park to the surrounding community and offer a green contrast to the built environment.
<br />
<br />Issues to be resolved and goals to be met during the design process are:
<br />
<br />· Resolve isolation of the park from the neighboring community by the scale of the adjacent roads;
<br />. Provide safe pedestrian and bicycle connections into the park;
<br />· Develop solutions to improve vehicular access and circulation for park and Fair patrons;
<br />· Explore and develop opportunities to incorporate the canal edge into the park entrance visually and/or functionally;
<br />· Explore and develop opportunities to incorporate edge conditions within the park visually andlor functionally to the arrivals; and,
<br />· Explore and develop opportunities to improve quality and quantity of tree canopy that defines the parks edges.
