Would you really want 2,000 people in the park, blocking the view of the ducks in the Lily pond and scaring the old ladies walking their groomed poodles?
Imagine, they are using the grass as a litter basket and the miniature golf course is covered with folk on cell phones talking into the air!

Like now?
I’m not looking for a solution. I’m content with what I think about the situation. After all, I’m not going to make a difference.
I could suggest a decentralisation of cities, for example. Build them in reverse. Spread the dwellings out and have the businesses distributed at the fringe. But I suspect there might be an objection to that. People like to sit next to each other while doing stuff, generally.
I can imagine, in the park, all the ‘office workers’ sitting in a huddle with their phones and laptops while the rest of the park would be available to the wanderers and children.
I’m just dreaming really. I don’t want a better world. The one I’m in has done me well so far. There are some things that piss me off but, like an irritating itch, I scratch it and wait for the next one.
