Bro you got a whole plaza, an area with a bunch of trees and the sea less than 5min away by foot, at what point do these people need a park?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Obviously these things are subjective, but a plaza is not a replacement for a park to me - neither is an area with two dozen or so trees, I need to be able to escape into a little bit of nature every now and then

The sea is definetely a big plus, but also not a park replacement - I think pointing out it's lack of a proper green area is a fair criticism, especially given the tone of the original tweet which acts like this is the peak of human living

They forgot to put the foot lettuce in my burger city

I'd argue the only people who don't need a park are ones that have enough room that it's redundant. Where do children run around and play? Where can you throw a ball or frisbee around or fly a kite or have a picnic etc but a park

A) in the street because it's safe to do so

B) some views from the other side

Playing in parks suck, I have no idea why Americans think a square field of flat grass is the ideal environment for s child 's play. You're thinking of baseball and tag, aren't you?

Such a fucking boring continent.

I can almost guarantee that this town has a forest with varied natural terrain within walking distance. Infinitely better.

you can park it outside

You park outside the city center, so the center is basically car free, beside some commercial vehicles to bring food to restaurants for example.

Sorry, I think you may have meant to reply to a different comment. I didn't mention anything car related
