How long before we see Jim Cantore standing on that sailboat thingy as the neighboring river floods the park?????

Half a billion?  Who designed it - the Pentagon hammer guys?

That park actually looks pretty cool to me ... would've loved to have something like that when my kids were small. But even my grandkids are now getting a little old for that sort of thing. It is a credit to the community that they were able to get so much private funding, but a park like that will cost a lot over time for maintenance and upkeep. It will be interesting to see if it remains "free" and what it looks like in 10 years.
