Slog - Comments on SeaSk8's Gettin' Closer http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/05/post_152 At last week's Seattle Center skatepark design meeting, designer VDZ showed off three possible designs for the long-delayed SeatSk8 replacement skatepark. The designs still don't include a bowl—a point of contention for some local skaters—but it looks like VDZ is doing what they can to make use of a less than optimal space. Click for a larger image. If you haven't made it to any of the design meetings, you can still give feedback on VDZ's forum. The final skatepark design will be revealed at the next Seask8 meeting on June 5th, starting at 6:30 in the Shaw Room....

What am I, 16 years old and sipping forties?

If I were a skater, I'd probably favor the swirling design.

Especially since it was Bill Gates and Paul Allen that forced the relocations ...

Option C looks like the most fun, not totally street oriented. Make them kids skate transition!
