Reviewed by ChocolateScott D. Eagles Memorial skate park at Veterans Park is finally getting done. The construction progress has been great since it started late summer 2011. A good portion of the street course has been poured, and the transitions in the kidney bowl have been poured as well. It won't be open this December as it was expected to be, but the progress has been good enough for me to believe it will be finished here in the next 2-3 months, early spring 2012 at the latest.
| What's Good | Conrete, looks just as good if not better than the original design, good elements, and will be one of few parks in Virginia to support a street/bowl/vert combination. |
| What sucks | Being done in phases. The design included two bowls, a street course, and a new relocated vert ramp. There will be the one kidney bowl and street course when phase 1 is done. The word is for phase 2 is the original vert ramp will be kept, dismantled, relocated and rebuilt in the area beyond the street course. The second flow bowl will take the current location of the vert ramp. Luckily the park will be formidable even without phase 2 being done. |
