Hey, I'm just the messenger. Actually, there really aren't very many parks in the area worth the time. Andy Livingstone is mostly made up of artificial turf playing fields, I think they have a fence around it to keep people out. I can only think of Thornton Park, and the little area next to Science World. If it were up to me, I'd keep a third of the space, the area next to False Creek, as public space. The rest could be developed into tall enough buildings that could hide the Georgia Viaduct.
