      What you don’t want to sit on some green grass underneath the shade of the open sun and do nothing?

      It even has pretty yellow flower beds.

      It’s an improvement as it’s somewhat better for the environment, but it could be soo much better. A small cafe with outdoor dining, trees, a piece of play equipment, native grasses, water, etc.

      This looks like the photographer was aiming for a shot without people, and took a picture early in the morning or similar. Notice there’s also a lack of cars on the street and pedestrians on the adjacent sidewalks.

      When I’ve walked through the area there’s usually a lot of people around. Some using the park, some walking to or from the north end.

      The neighborhoods to the north used to be inaccessible to foot traffic from downtown. Now they actually feel like part of the city and are a big draw for both tourists and locals.
