word from my bmx boy is that theyre going to leave some of it for us to ride, and the other stuff is going to be tennis courts...
notice how they didnt demolish the actualy bank part yet, they left that and wrecked all the stuff on the other side of the barrier.
also, i was there last week so it could be dead by now..
RIP, unless they keep them.
i just dont think i can imagine them gone, like im really sad.
i've been there since age 10 as a skateboard poser.

Alright...here is the latest that I have heard. Seems that the small banks/handrail area is going to be set aside as a senior citizens area. Not rideable/skateable during normal hours...late night poaching sessions, maybe. the top 30-40 percent of the big banks closest to the small banks, will be the volleyball courts/other recreational activities section. the lower 60-70 percent of the banks, with the stair set, hand rail, pillars, will be set aside as skateboard area. I am fairly sure that they will allow bike usage there also. Thanks to 5Boro, Bobby Puleo, and anyone else involved in the parks dept. meeting that helped save the banks.

they will allow bikes there because bikers own that spot more than skateboarders. bobby puelo is probably a nice guy and respects two wheelers. he also knows that bikers tend to be alot stronger than skateboarders.

Saying it in easy to understand words... They better let us ride there, or we can just f*(k them up... its their choice. Plus, a bike can be a powerful weapon when you know how to use it! ^_^

Thanks Shino!! It isn't a case of us versus them...I was one of "them" for 20 years, and I have to say, the people that get the most respect are those that can co-operate to keep riding spots around. We all are doing our sh!t on the wrong side of the law, and the wrong side of local government. It takes co-operation to keep these spots alive. Infighting is just going to make public opinion of us worse. When lil' Johnny rollerblader goes home and tells his upper east side mommy and daddy that he got beat up by a kid on a bike at the banks, you think that is going to help the cause? And remember, respect is earned, not owed.

IE - treate people respectfully until they screw up!
