15 Session Two: Design Input February 26, 2016 New Beginnings Enrichment Center

16 Alternative One Comments

17 Would these docks be vandalized like the ones on Ojibway Island? I like the fishing opportunities.

18 Historic feel/ interactive signage I would love to maintain the history of the property!

19 I like the natural habitat areas. It s more of a connection to nature in the city. Love all the nature, we could use it for education

20 Having a public safety building would light up the neighborhood and make everyone feel safe Add a walking path around the site and more recreation I m concerned with neighborhood kids unsupervised with the pond There s not a lot of sit down restaurants near the site I like the pond I like the no through traffic idea Have more fun activities everyday

21 The pond is concerning due to the liability and the cost of staffing to keep it safe I would love to see a garden program

22 Make sure there is a cover over the amphitheater for performers I like that the sledding hill also acts as an amphitheater The amphitheater could be a place for school and community bands to perform

23 Beautiful, easy to maintain, easy to build

24 I love the showcasing of the gate. It s a great nod to the history of the site.

25 I love this nod to the grandstand, plus it s practical and artistic I like the recycled materials, reuse, reduce Eliminate all of the grand stand

26 I like the community pavilion it s welcoming and inviting for outdoor social activities Good idea Great idea Gardens can be added later when there is programming on site

27 Awesome The education center is wonderful

28 I love the entry, it looks like the old entry but more natural looking I like the promenade it encourages the use of the gate and makes a statement

29 I love the splash park it s a fun outdoor activity without needing to know how to swim

30 I love the sledding hills to encourage winter exercise Sledding is a good idea

31 Alternative Two Comments

32 How much use would the grandstand actually get? Would it be worth the investment? I m concerned with the through traffic All the sports facilities would get a lot of use I love the new fire station

33 We need positive active things to do for local kids Local teens need more organized sports How do we make people feel safe?

34 I like the grandstand but I don t want it to compete with the FirstMerit Bank Event Park

35 I love all the green. We need more places that promote environmentally responsible living I like the idea of a community center. I love the green architecture

36 How with traffic flow not get backed up? Don t spend money to keep the grand stand

37 I don t like the roof it will block the sun There s already an event pavilion in downtown, which is very close to here

38 I like the introduction of new types of activities and winter sports
