[RP TownTalk] Calvert Park

Mon Nov 27 19:12:46 UTC 2006

I am wondering what can be about the Calvert Park area alongside Riverdale road nearly across from Riverdale Elementary. 

  Being a nice day I took my lunch from school to the park by the river, something I will not do again anytime soon.  Aside from the trash scattered about, which seems absurd considering the amount of public trash cans, I lost count of the condoms laying about and relationally lost my appetite.

  I guess it is a good thing that condoms at least are being used but I doubt the park is an appropriate nor legal venue for these activities.

  I know fences, clocks, parades and politics...thoughtfull growth and development topics are part of this community but down past the historic neighborhoods and brick paved sidewalks, around where the surviving feral hens, cocks and other wild things live, there extends the town of Riversdale and even though we haven't entirely figured out how to integrate different cultures and socio-economic groups in Riverdale let alone the world, to ignore the separateness and coincidentally condom refuse is to prevent the wholesome growth and development of this whole community.

  What can be done about the nocturnal orgies occurring in the park, should it be a concern for the image of River dale and the healthy living conditions of the people in the surrounding apartments. Is it a reflection of some underlying issue that should be dealt with by our whole community.  In my opinion it is hard for a community to have a healthy self-esteem when it is surrounded by trash reflecting self and communal disrespect.

The old post-office building (where Aunt Emily's Doll House is) is/was 
owned by the Wells family (Gordon Wells/Taylor Wells). I had heard that 
was up for sale, but haven't heard whether it's actually been sold.

The buildings between the old post office building and the Jemal corner 
building are owned by Bruce Wernek - town resident and sometimes poster 
to this list. These are the buildings with the storefront church and 
the Second Time Around used clothing store.
