Railroad Park: Uses & Activities

Birmingham's new Railroad Park, located in between the North and South sides of downtown, is going to be one of the best new elements of our community, in my opinion. The design is perfect to allow a large number of people to use this wonderful public place for a large number or reasons. I think that the people of Birmingham will embrace the Railroad Park partially due to its numerous uses and activities. For example, here is one of a set of playgrounds for the youngsters. It's brand new and I'm sure any child of younger age would love to play here. So, with the children playing, we would assume the parents are watching nearby. But hopefully they're also conversing/interacting with the other parents. That is a great way for new adult friendships to be made. Two strangers children become best friends causing the adults to interact with each other. There are many other uses of our new park as well. There will be an amphitheater, a walking path on the perimeter, two lakes with interconnecting streams, large open grass areas, a variety of beautiful plants, and many different places to sit and soak it all in. Our new park is going to be a great place for our city and is going to be something for the people of Birmingham to be proud of.
