Blue River Park on the rebound

This image from the 3-D "walk through" of plans to rebuild the Blue River Park shows one of three proposed covered picnic areas. During last Saturday's design open house meeting, UO design student Audrey Rycewicz updated people on four changes that were developed since a February public input session. Among the changes was the addition of a 9-hole disc golf area, an extension of the riverfront Historic Trail, a larger off-leash dog park zone, and integrating a "natural play" area with traditional playground equipment in an area that is open to view by parents seated in the picnic/BBQ areas.
