So quality of life only equalled more soccer fields and walking trails along the edge for those in east Tulsa... poor saps
Better than nothing, even those are used as good examples of how cities can multipurpose their water retention and control facilities. Cities from all over the country come to Tulsa to see the progressive things we have done on this front. Though the Central Park project wasnt the right size and such to have soccer fields in it, the park was definitely a nice touch. Will be just as nice and treasured as Woodward Park in the future when the plants get a few more years growth on them and the area around it continues to improve. And yes, I hope with the new Master Plan that we start paying even more attention to getting nice redevelopment nodes going in some areas which could use it in the East side of the city. That side could use some pork as well.
Thanks for the further information. In my own ignorance I have learned something new that I had never considered before. I retract my poorly thought out statement about the retention ponds in east Tulsa. I still enjoy the new Central Park. It is a great place to take a walk and get some fresh air.
