tweak the free land? why? no one uses it as a park now. why tweak it so it is nicer for no one to use?
the city and hardberger are only moving towards a redevelopment of the park because it is such a crappy waste of prime downtown land as it is.
whetever plan they come up with will include creating a little more usable green space from the mish mash of nonsense that is currently there in addition to adding development along the periphery to give the area some life.
