It is difficult to picture a city or town without a park or a playground for everyone to enjoy free of charge. This thought is not as far fetched, as some might believe. The massive movement for communities to provide public lands for relaxation, leisure and play has its roots in the Progressive Reforms around the turn of the twentieth century. The congestion of urban centers and the fading concept of child labor creates unintended consequences such as an increase in crime, lack of natural landscape
“Finally, a ‘sense of place’ that makes sense.” Oak Creek is one of Irvine’s newest communities having been built in the late 90’s and early 00’s. Its proximity to the 405, the 5, and 133 Freeways give residents easy access to the surrounding area. For example, the Irvine Spectrum is only five minutes away. Perhaps the greatest thing about living in Oak Creek is the number of wonderful vibrant “third places” you will find here. A “third place” is a public gathering space used for social and recreational
Chelsea could tear down all the useless buildings in and around the City Hall, there will be some conflict on whether the buildings should stay or go. Chelsea should tear down the buildings and make space for new and better things like parks or new stores. People will be happier without all the old buildings in the way of perfectly beautiful views. This will work for Chelsea because there needs to be more space and less old buildings that nobody likes. These buildings are a nuisance, so
no longer provide adequate funds for its state park system. The governor has proposed a “group maintenance” policy for the parks. This means that all the parks in a given part of the state would be managed on a group basis. Eliminated would be all of the individual local park managers.

A dog park can benfit a lot of poeple and pets, Poeple can walk around the park while there dogs run around and play. The park would only be one acre of open land with a fence surrounding the park. It would be plenty of room for a dog to run around and have fun. Dogs have been mans best freinds forever and we want to treat them as such so we need a park for our dogs.

Despite the talk of national parks and national resource parks, the main focus is the everyday park. While I was sitting on the side of the Raritan River I thought to myself how interesting the set up was. As I walked up there was a bench placed perfectly in this gap of trees that allowed you to look out onto the reflecting water.
