Honestly, I am way, way, way more concerned with the "uglification" of Eleanor Tinsley Park that the ultimate destiny of the disc golf park. I just can't believe that anyone in their right minds supports putting a skate park THERE. With all the vacant land around this city? This is one of the only "beautiful" views of Houston and one of the last green spaces that bikes, runners, and dog-walkers can enjoy.
