It seems to be a rather small area for deer to hide, though I did once see a deer along the trail near University Ave.(05-05-2021, 11:41 AM)ac3r Wrote: It will surely get busier as the region grows. It's a shame it can't be expanded in any way. I suppose they could use the Henry Sturm Greenway but that doesn't offer much. There's also a barren lot beside that which seems to do nothing but store dilapidated tractor trailers. If the city bought that, you could make a pretty nice entrance to the park off Victoria and West Ave as well as expand it by quite a lot.
Going back in time a little bit: This comment stuck in my mind for the last month and I wanted to come back to it. I just wanted to say, I hope very strongly that no one would truly consider removing the Henry Sturm Greenway to make way for a park expansion. It's very quickly become my favourite part of the park, and I think it's the most beautiful part of both the park and the IHT. It's also the only place we'll probably ever have downtown where you can surround yourself with trees, see deer in said trees, and watch heron eat fish out of the creek.
The lot full of trucks/trailers could certainly go though..
