Re: Expand the Myriad Gardens
I personally would love to see the Myriad Gardens being connected ny a series of greenbelt parks, block by block, continuing south toward the river. Each park will offer something different. Beginning with the botanical gardens downtown, and then the next park will offer flower gardens and evergreens centered by a large fountain. The next will offer a dog park, with wading pools and several acres dedicated to animal-related activities, such as frizbie tossing and outdoor dog shows. The fourth park will offer somewhat of a nature walk, showcasing central Oklahoma's natural terrain, similar to Martin Park, but built for the urban residents of downtown. A fifth park will offer a natural maze for area residents to enjoy, with a large fountain in the center of the park. The sixth park will be dedicated to athletics, mainly soccer, and the final park will connect the greenbelt to the Oklahoma River, where jogging trails, ballfields and the skate park.
The greenbelt will be fronted by midrise residential next to a glittering new office tower, 60 stories tall. Let's be wise about our new downtown space.
Continue the Renaissance!!!
