Catskill Park

Assignment at a Park Hayden Park was an interesting place for a Freeze-Frame assignment. For those who have not heard of a Freeze-Frame, it is simply sitting in one spot for 15 to 20 minutes observing ones surroundings. So to continue, at first glance, Hayden Park is a typical Valley of the Sun type park. Most of these typical parks have grass, picnic tables, some trees, and usually some sort of sports availability such as a basketball court or soccer field, or both. In addition, the parks also have

Introduction With the rapid growth of the American population and the greater demand for work, large urban areas developed throughout the U.S. landscape. Urbanization, as it is called, is the replacement of the rural areas with more urban ones. Urbanization has impacted human behavior and wildlife as well and most likely won’t be ending anytime soon as humanity continues to push into wildlife habitats. As relative keepers of the environment, humans need to understand the impacts of urbanization

presents problems for these kids lives. The problem I am focusing on is the 9th Street Childrens Park. The problem with it is that it's getting worn down and becoming a small hazard. This problem has been becoming worse and worse over the past decade. Concerns have grown with it as well. Parents are concerned about their children's safety, and I would have to both agree and disagree. The main problem with the park is the main structure. The wood is untreated and the bolts are well past starting to rust

My group had to opportunity to observe CM Allen’s afterschool program first and meet the kids residing in the neighborhood. Upon arriving, I noticed the little playground right across the street from the KAD Korner Store and it wasn’t very big and took up most space in the area so there wasn’t a lot of open space for the kids to run around and play different, structured games like the ones we had planned. I didn’t like that the playground was across the street because the kids would run back and

area great field stretches out, and ends at the edge of a large lake. There is a light scattering of trees in the field but is quite open. Lake Park is located on Dale Mabry highway in Lutz, Florida. “Florida is home to 160 state parks covering more than 700,000 acres.” (Gall & Antone, 2012). Lake Park is a beautiful, family and pet friendly part of these parks, with lots of activities for the whole family. The breeze whispering through the trees and the sun sparkling of the water of the lakes, makes

Overfunding Parks The lessons learned from park play are not comparable to what sidewalk play has to offer. “Learning Responsibility on City Sidewalks” by Jane Jacobs opens the reader 's eyes on the benefits of simple street play. In her passage, Jane Jacobs compares the more beneficial effects of sidewalk play compared to the overpraised parks. Jacobs tells us that parks don’t build a stronger form of morality and help with developing more knowledge on city life like sidewalk play do. Park children

the first state parks . The CCC was involved with the development of 19 state parks totaling 108,608 acres5.

This suburb offers large blocks of land for residential or commercial development, unlike most of the surrounding suburbs, which makes it a rare commodity indeed. Inside the confines of Earlwood, you will find a small shopping precinct, plentiful parks and playgrounds, rare bushlands, and a beautiful cohesion of food, community, culture, trendy cafes, pizza bars, and natural beauty wrapped up in a setting that brings the old and the new together. Earlwood is often mistaken for being part of the Inner

Paolo Santoro, the leader of the 5. Januar Gesellschaft (5th of January Club), raised his questions to the girl. “And how exactly are we going to do just that, Ma’am? Frankly, I can see ourselves allowing it to occur in the northern parts of the Plaid Curtain, but for the ones on the southern counterpart, I have reasons to doubt. It goes without saying that, as a unified movement, we barely have any control over our own affairs south of Plaid Curtain, with both the Underground and the FYC busily

The neighborhood surrounding of Doors Park is not a through street, but a cul-de-sac where cars park along the curve and wrap around to leave the grounds. As one walks towards the park, the landscape is well maintained and free of litter. A latched door and wooden fence enclose the playground area; and structurally, the height of the latch is not reachable for infants or toddlers. On a wooden post positioned to the entrance, a sign states the proper ages for the children and mandatory adult supervision
