Railroad Park: Sociability



One of my favorite components of our new green space downtown is shown in this photograph. This is the Bowl of Birches, located on the South end of the park, and it really caught my attention. I found this patch of Birches to be one of the single most individual aspects of the park. For me, this is an ideal place to meet friends or family for an afternoon in the park. The bowl is so specific in itself, it sets itself apart as a perfect meeting area. When I go down to the park, and am meeting people there; I'm going to tell them "to meet me at the Bowl of Birches." I find the park to be a great place to meet up with out of town friends and family, and it gives us an opportunity to show it off. Make it known that we are implementing positive changes in our community for the better of everyone. Whether you're meeting up with friends for drinks, meeting up with a blind date, going with your children or grandparent for a picnic or walk in the park, this new aspect of our city is going to be great for everything social.
