[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The main divergence seems to be between those who want Hearst to remain a nice green park and those who are fine with it becoming a D.C. Recreational Complex.[/quote]

It is controlled by DC Department of Parks and Rec. It has the right to program it on behalf of the taxpayers. The local residents do not get to trump the city programming.

Period.[/quote]

You sound actually like a Trump flack.  "Period."

Many frequent park users and other members of the community would rather see Hearst stay as a park, a shady, green oasis with much-used outdoor playing facilities.  It would be a shame to pave it over with a lot of concrete, high cyclone fences and bright cobra lights and turn it into an urban recreational complex.[/quote]

That is all fine and good. Go buy your own green space. This is public land that the public agencies program to the benefit of the public, not the local residents.

Pave it.  This be DC!  [/quote]
