Riverside Adventure Park

Sad situation. This space has abundant wildlife, trees and open spaces, and connects the Marian University Ecolab to the White River. A wonderful opportunity for an Urban Ecosystem, with foxes, deer, hawks, eagles. Instead, the City of Indianapolis is paving a 500-car parking lot, cutting down trees, tearing the place up. Feels like the OPPOSITE of what people asked for in the survey: to preserve this natural area, and to give us bathrooms. Those were the top 2 requests from the public survey. Plus, the city started with miles of good quality, paved golf cart paths for people to do outdoor exercise inexpensively and conveniently. It’s now being torn up.

My favorite park in Indianapolis. It has this wonderful mix of wild, unkept nature and organized design. Overall I found the park to be extremely relaxing, as It felt far away from the city. There were nice paths that use to connect the golf greens. However, now they lead through dense meadows, filled with plants and wildlife. On top of that, they have this race track thing that is really fun to ride a bike down.

Great newly renovated park that has lots of walking for adults and playgrounds for kids!

Mannnnnnn how are y’all going to take beautiful space and put a small park there with a metal slide and not just that where are the darn black people in the picture got a bunch of white kids running around a park in a predominantly black community just saying seems like yall just doing what y’all want.🤷🏾‍♂️

Feels like it is presently in a state of decay. A lot of the benches are broken around the trails around the north east part. I like the little signs giving historical information
