The Pros And Cons Of Milam Park
Parks are wonderful places were children can play and be social with others. Children are able to explore and develop their motor skills while having fun and at the same time be physically active. Milam Park has both good and bad qualities about it, but overall I believe that it is not an ideal park. It sits on a 1.02-acre lot and has a fence on only the back and sides of the property. The fence only marks off the property line from the homes around it. There is no fencing or railing in the front portion that could prevent a child from running into the street. I would recommend that there be some kind or railing or fencing either around the playground were most of the children play or along the front of the park property to prevent children

    However, the city will also have the money they got from selling the property to help build the park. By building the park, you are also addressing the growing budget deficit by creating jobs. For example, you can charge people for boat launching or have a small appliance for fishing and snacks at the park. I think this is the best decision overall because you get to build the business complex which will create jobs and bring other businesses. Also, by building a small park, you will create more jobs and help Rid economy grow. The city want lose any money because the park will pay for itself by having festivals, appliance store and boat…

    Watching a game at Miller Park in Milwaukee is a great way to experience American baseball culture. The Milwaukee Brewers are the home team for a town that prides itself on the combination of its awesome "brews" and incredible food. With the liveliness of the games and the jovial atmosphere you are guaranteed a good time at Miller Park but can still head out to other great venues to continue your fun in Milwaukee. If you've got some time on your hands during the day then consider stopping into the Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory where you can take a look at different curated plants and a model train line.

    This primary document is a watercolor painting made in 1954 that depicts the commercial atmosphere encompassing the corner of 21st and Pennsylvania Ave. NW. More specifically, this painting features people walking about present-day James Monroe Park, as well as certain characteristics of everyday urban life (such as a local market, multiple-story buildings, ‘50s era automobiles, and a streetcar). This artwork was created by John A. Bryans, an American artist and educator whose work focuses on the ordinary happenings within cityscapes and rural settings that most people take for granted. With that said, Bryans likely wanted to emphasize both the simplicity and beauty of such a busy area of the city, which was–and still is–locally known as the…

    During this summer, I attended an Architecture Summer Program at the University of Pennsylvania, designed a children’s water park in the campus and hand-made a model of it. However, the visit of City Hall and Dilworth Park inspired me much. City Hall, as the heart of downtown Philadelphia and the nation’s largest municipal building, serves the city’s government and politics for over 100 years. It boasts over 250 architectural relief’s and freestanding sculptures including the statue of William Penn, which stands atop the City Hall Tower . The classic Second French Empire style of City Hall buildings and the modern sense of the Dilworth Park in front of City Hall perfectly integrate and mutually impact each other. The dynamic energy of the fountain in Dilworth Park does not affect the majesty of City Hall, rather add vitality to it .…

    As the Memorial Park's website puts it, "You can dive into history" when you "visit the Mighty A". The USS Alabama Battleship was an instrumental vessel during World War II and eventually was parked on the Gulf Coast of Mobile Alabama. The park surrounding the ship includes memorials and recreational picnic areas so visitors can learn history and enjoy being outside. It's also an easy stop for travelers taking interstate 10. Just across the Mobile River from the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park is the Oakleigh House Museum where you can visit a preserved mansion that once belonged to an area cotton broker. This historic area will give you a glimpse of the old South while you meet locals who've preserved a tradition of Southern Hospitality.…

    • Parents (Young Children): Parents would be a type of customer that the park would have to consider, not because of the parents, but more so the young children that they would of taken to the park. Their expectations would range from rides and other forms of entertainment that would be suitable for their children, as well as accessible changing facilities for very young children. They may also need a child orientated restraint for the children to eat out, and not a restraint that is more geared towards adults. I would also presume that they expect to have some sort of navigation or information for them to actually find places suitable for their children.…

    National parks definitely have a big significance in American history that is not even a question. What is questioned is just how important national parks are. People like Wallace Stegner, or Ken Burns believe that national parks are America’s best idea; however, people like Clay Jenkinson, director of The Dakota Institute, or Alan Spears, of High County News, would agree that National parks are indeed not the greatest idea of America. Clay Jenkinson directly said, “National parks are not America’s best idea” (The National Parks; America’s Best Idea). Obviously it is a split issue on just how important the National Parks really are but clearly National Parks is not America’s greatest ide.…

    even though it would cost a little bit out of the budget I still see it being used and maintained by anyone and everyone who has a pet that they feel should get out and exercies on a regular basses.
