Baker Park II

Baker Park's facilities are really good.




The paving is eye-catching.  The landscaping is extensive.  It mixes mounds, elevation changes and open areas.  There are lots of benches situated for rest and to admire the views.


I have never before seen a bench with an adjoining space for wheelchairs.  Great idea!


The Gordon River is crossed by a wide wooden bridge with a gazebo near the east end.
The side of the park west of the river is landscaped and groomed, while the east side is more natural.



There is a large community building that is not yet ready for use.


And a playground aimed at pre-school and elementary school kids is huge.  And busy!

  2. A lot of thought went into design this place.

  3. In a year or two, when the plantings and trees have filled out, it will be more "comfortable" looking, with less sharp edges.
