Some of our readers and us came across Park(ing) Day parks. The ones we went to had some of the friendliest frolicking individuals we have ever met who were sober. And these are all sort of downtown-ishy, but if you have images of today's parks elsewhere in the city, tag your photos in flickr with sfist to share them, won' t you? Or visit Park(ing) Day's account here for loads of images.
Park(ing) Day could do this city a service by happening more than once a year.
