Sweet skatespot made by skateboarders, under the bridge, concrete park, has parking lot and lights at night, and all columns are graffiti-ed out with amazing art, check it out. Sk8 or dye...! You don't have to sk8 to have a good time , just enjoy the spot and the nice people.

Great park, great people. Never met an aggressive skater there. Skaters built and lobbied for this place with very little outside help and their own time and money, so if you show up on a bike or scooter maybe just keep that in perspective, and be friendly. No one owes you…
