Washington Park, Cincinnati’s oldest park, re-opened today after a massive renovation and expansion. It now features a dog park, interactive water features where kids can play and cool off, and a stage for programming similar to Fountain Square.
The second phase of The High Line park in New York opened about a year ago. The park is not only much larger, but is filled with much more activity, than when I last visited in March 2011.
Park(ing) Day is an annual event that temporarily turns on-street parking spaces into unique public parks. Cincinnati’s Parking Day festivities included ballet dancers, a faux beach, a violinist and accordion player, a mini baseball diamond, fine dining, face painting, and a circus act.
