Dowling 2.0

 Dowling 2.0

79 Main St, Dowling

Closer to the public school.

Ollie North SB, the local advocacy group, has been busy and Dowling is the latest park to get an upgrade. 

I find it amusing that the CRC metal parks have perfect coping reveal the their concrete parks never have.

Being a CRC park, it has other issues.



This ledge in any concrete park would have a single piece of coping (or welded sections) running the length of the ledge.
Not this CRC ledge though. Here, it's 3 separate sections of grindable metal.

BUT, the 'coping' here sits just below the top of the ledge.  Grinds along the edge of the painted top surface (non-slip) are sketchier and required more wax.

There's also a sharp edge that decided to take a bite out of my wheel.
