Eastside Park Update

Wooden planks create what will be the ceiling for the shelter house at Eastside (Is it East Side or Eastside?) Memorial Park. A metal roof will cover the wood.

Teamwork. One guy cuts wood, the other hammers it into place.

The Eastside Park is at Ninth and East Streets in Emporia.

  1. I went over this evening to look closely at the wooden decking on the shelter. I’m not sure what I think about the wood. The wood sat outside for 15 months and has discolored on the outside of the stacks. It is not as bad as I thought it might look. Maybe it is not a problem.

    Had the shelter been erected right away, the deck would have been fresh wood that would age and gray evenly over time.
