I screwed up big time in Gainesville, Florida. We had a "brownfield" that was going to be turned into a city park and a stormwater retention area that looks good and not just a rectangular retention pond. This park was going to be adjacent to a rail trail. Folks in Gainesville now know it as Depot Park.
I was at the charette and I was only thinking about recreational riders needing water fountains. The park would be adjacent to a rail trail that takes folks out to a really nice one east of town. What I should have been thinking was that they could pave a wide enough path around the ponds for an off road crit series. It would have been awesome.
And since I was friends with the mayor at that time who was the driving force behind the whole thing I might have gotten it done.
One of my regrets in life.
