Not one of Heishman's finest hours, really, but then what could bring beauty to what appears to be a brutalist skate park?

This could be quite nice, or a travesty. I'll withhold judgment until I see video.

It was a great ribbon cutting, and the rain showed up as promised.

Plus, they already made 17 cents from pennies tossed in the bucket.

Oh, so that's what that is! And yeah, brutalist skate park is a great description. That view into the alley is really something. Dumb place for a park, but oh well. The library is still looks great.
