Printer's Row Park Dedication


Created with flickr slideshow.

Just wanted to share some photos I took of a park dedication that occurred this morning in Printer's Row.

Printer's Row Park’s ribbon cutting was executed by Alderman Robert Fioretti (who looks a little like William Shatner) this morning just after 10am. The event was attended by an estimated 150 people who mingled and ate free snacks supplied by several neighborhood merchants. The park's one grassy area sits atop a raised platform and was crowded by dogs and their owners. One of the park's designers was overheard explaining that the grassy platform was designed to keep dogs off. The dogs and their owners did not seem to mind the sentiment and continued to frolic.
