Shortly after we published our report on last night’s Roxhill Park Skatespot meeting, Jay, asked in the comment section why Delridge Skatepark‘s “egg bowl” is currently “fenced off.” Our followup question to Seattle Parks‘ Kelly Davidson brought this reply: “Parks is having a two-level rail put around 50% of the egg bowl since safety issues were raised about toddlers from the wading pool wandering over, or pedestrians cutting the corner at night. There was concern either would fall into the deep end.” (From covering project meetings, we recall that the wading-pool concern had surfaced previously, more than once.) Davidson says the fence will be up “until tomorrow so the posts can cure.”
