There may not be a lot of families down there now but more and more people are having kids down there. We have a 4 month old and I know at least two other couples that have recently had kids. The park will get used a lot. Not only for kids but for dogs. There has to be at least 100 dogs that live down there. Just visit the greenway any evening behind the Meriwether and you will see. Things have really picked up in South Waterfront. 9 condos were sold in June of 2009. The Ardea and Riva on the Park have rented out a good number of units. A neighborhood like this needs a park just like the Pearl has its parks. And don't forget the Gibbs St. Bridge will be starting construction this fall. That will give access to residents of the Lair Hill neighborhood. We love living in South Waterfront and look forward to frequenting the park. The park is coming along nicely.
