How I would improve Burnett Park:
- Remove sidewalks in the middle to create a large, continuous lawn.
- Add a fountain, or even a small pond.
- Add a pavilion with a cafe and restrooms.
- Add permanent seating in addition to the portable metal seats that are often put away at night.
- Add more lighting at night.
- Add an adult-sized swing set.
Why do swing sets only have to be for kids? Houston's Midtown Park has a high-off-the-ground swing set and it's fun.
I'd keep the trees. Perhaps we can build another green park with more open sky somewhere else downtown.
