why not start a neighborhood fundraiser for play equipment?

come up with 65 grand and you can have a park

Read the other posts on here about the needle and garbage problems in the other parks and playgrounds in the city..also a nice hangout after dark. Why would you want to bring that into your neighbourhood??

ahahahah the city isnt gonna put a park there behind my house a park was promised 20years ago and guess what? there building houses now

I agree with the lady.
Playground equipment is a great idea and raising funds for it by the neighbours is fair.
In this part of town, garbage and needles shouldn't be a problem. If it were, you would have found them by now. Check with the fire dept. They pick up the needles and know where they are most likely to be found. I wouldn't let them near Prime Ministers' Park though.
The 'Denizens of the Night' don't want to hunt around neighbourhoods looking for a park to shoot drugs. In Europe, there are parks exclusively for drug users but they had better stay out of the other public parks.
Playing in those school yards? My kids did. Let them go there with caution in the evenings though.
Kids need a place to play.
