    Bro you got a whole plaza, an area with a bunch of trees and the sea less than 5min away by foot, at what point do these people need a park?

      Obviously these things are subjective, but a plaza is not a replacement for a park to me - neither is an area with two dozen or so trees, I need to be able to escape into a little bit of nature every now and then

      The sea is definetely a big plus, but also not a park replacement - I think pointing out it’s lack of a proper green area is a fair criticism, especially given the tone of the original tweet which acts like this is the peak of human living

      I’d argue the only people who don’t need a park are ones that have enough room that it’s redundant. Where do children run around and play? Where can you throw a ball or frisbee around or fly a kite or have a picnic etc but a park

        Playing in parks suck, I have no idea why Americans think a square field of flat grass is the ideal environment for s child 's play. You’re thinking of baseball and tag, aren’t you?

        Such a fucking boring continent.

        I can almost guarantee that this town has a forest with varied natural terrain within walking distance. Infinitely better.
