A
Parks
are
one
of
the
first
opportunities
that
we
have
to
address
issues
around
accessibility,
around
equity
and,
frankly,
environmental
stewardship
in
our
neighborhoods
ninety-eight
percent
of
our
residents
are
within
a
10-minute
walk
to
a
park.
There's
only
real
value
in
that
statistic.
If
that
park
is
a
good
park,
what
makes
great
parks
is
the
people
that
use
it
and
the
people
that
surround
it.
