A summer beer garden would be a lot of fun! It would also be great to have a walk/run/bike path that felt safe for everyday use.

Confirm that the bottom area of the park is free of contaminants from interstate runoff and combined sewer overflow.

Please maintain the Tower and keep a German Cultural character to all the structures and facilities. Covington German heritage is charming!

We need to rebuild any lost tree coverage to help dampen noise from the highway. The separate parts of the park should be more connected too

Big, wooden, community designed and built place structure like the one at Sawyer Point and the one in Pleasant Ridge (“thousand hands”).

The Tower through the 6th St Promenade would make a beautiful, scaled down version of Washington Park. Parks Dept should copy success.

downtowncarypark.com nailed how a city park should be. Ponds/gardens, walking trails, nature play grounds, coffeeshop, beergarden, barkpark!

Ask Cincinnati. They do parks better than Covington, no offence.

A trail that connects to the 4th street bike lane/side walk and to the Riverfront commons trail. Overall better connectivity

Mainstrasse will be severely impacted by the feds, and your job is to improve this asset for people who are losing quality of life.

The Sixth Street Promenade should be included! Connect these green spaces, add lighting and maintain the German Village feel were known for!

A splash pad that also functions as a water feature like they have at Washington Park could be a cool way to encourage families to visit.

Please do not allow Manifest and Oktoberfest to expand beyond Goebel. There is no need to obstruct traffic in the rest of the Mainstrasse

I want to see a destination playground in the park. Something like Tower Park in Fort Thomas.

Add a splash pad / fountain in front of clock tower. Similar to river front park in Cincinnati.

Find a way to incorporate high safety so women and children can actually enter the park without having to worry.

Create an inviting environment like Washington Park in the OTR in Cincinnati. Serve Bohemian Beverages and offer live music in the Summer.
