Cheesman Park Pavillion at sunset (and my shadow). Cheesman plays a big part in both Anyone But Her and Denver Noir. I always love coming here.

Freaky Friday Fact: In #Denver, #CheesmanPark has a chilling secret. Originally Mount Prospect Cemetery, the city decided to transform it into a park, the undertaker chopped up #corpses and stuffed them into child-sized #coffins. Hundreds of bodies were left behind, forgotten beneath the soil.

Do you #BikeDen through #CheesmanPark?

Why does there seem to be no plans to improve access into the park?

When will we address this connection thru #CheesmanPark?
#MobilityForALL

I wish I could get someone at #RideRTD or my #DenverCityCouncil Office to take this issue by the reins and make this bus stop in #CheesmanPark accessible.

The #CityPark Porta-potties...
There are only seven(7) for the whole park and notice how they're the same or different...
Why?

Compare them to other #denver parks like #CheesmanPark or #WashPark.

How are they the same or different & why?

Them: Those of us who are rational & smart...

Me: I found a mountain of shit in a #CheesmanPark Porta-potty when there were Five(5) in the park, and now there are only Four(4).
How do you define smart?

Here is a reasonable compromise that I've requested from @denverparksrec for Special Events in #CheesmanPark.

Put the event along the West side of Cheesman Park.

In this #WeekWithoutDriving I took Yoda to his follow-up vet appointment at the vet.

Frustrating to find a @denverparksrec Special Event setting up to block the Williams entrance into #CheesmanPark.

@MikeJohnstonCO tell @jolonclark & DPR to prioritize bike mobility!

@Strava won't even let me create a segment around the South loop of @denverparksrec #CheesmanPark b/c it is too short.

Why can't we designate the West side of the park for Special Events instead?

0.35 miles with an available #bikeDEN detour...

Still asking @denverparksrec to remove the Porta-potties from the roadways in #CheesmanPark & #CityPark of @CityofDenver.

Can you see how a group of people & the Porta-potty can reduce the useable width of the roadway on a designated #bikeDEN route, @jolonclark?

Placing these two Porta-potties along one of the splits at the South entrance to @denverparksrec #CheesmanPark is better for everyone. Defending the previous location just makes you seem ignorant.
#mobilityforall

I had two people ride past me & my dog in #CheesmanPark this morning & then I rode through #CongressPark twice on both segments of my commute.

So...
Are these instances acceptable?
If not, which ones & why?

Thanks for your help, @denverparksrec.

Conditions in #CheesmanPark of @DenverPerfect10 in @CityofDenver on Sunday, June 30th.

#bikeDEN access partially obstructed by illegally parked car, BUT the @denverparksrec jersey barriers were obstructing the #ADA parking.

Not sure why all these No Parking signs have been placed along a stretch in @denverparksrec #CheesmanPark that is supposed to be closed to cars.

Reminder that Special Events in parks must maintain #bikeDEN thru-access or provide a detour.

Unresolved issues with this Porta-potty location in @denverparksrec #CheesmanPark in @DenverPerfect10 of @CityofDenver.

- #ADA 🚻 is obstructed by snow & ice.
- When serviced by @honeybucket debris & residue is left blocking half the roadway.

Is this really OK, @HRCPDenver?

Wondering when, if ever, the Porta-potties in @denverparksrec #CheesmanPark will be moved out of the roadways.

There still aren't any along the West paved walkway.

This is at the @CHUNdenver Tears-McFarlane House, which is getting an update that should include improvements to #ADA compliant access to #CheesmanPark.
www.westword.com/news/cheesman-park-denve...

Can we PLEASE prioritize #ADA compliant access in the North side of #CheesmanPark?
#311Denver request is coming, though I shouldn't have to make it. @jolonclark, this is an example of what I mean when I ask to prioritize non-car connections into & thru @denverparksrec.

THANK YOU for the additional porta-potties in #CheesmanPark, @denverparksrec!

Is there a reason for them to still be in the roadway?
Can we please get a couple relocated to the West Pedestrian Trail & maybe one of the north entrances?

Here's an unresolved issue in #CheesmanPark.
There is no clear ♿ access to a Porta-potty on the Westside of the park that gets cleared by @denverparksrec.

I reported this issue as early as November & brought it up in a meeting with Jolon Clark, Executive Director of DPR.

The entrances to #CheesmanPark are MUCH better than the #FranklinStNBW!

Maybe someone can better communicate these issues to @davidpulsipher of @DenverDOTI & @denverparksrec.

Thank you for clearing 9th!!!

Just as problematic are the walls of ice blocking access to @RideRTD bus stops on the East side of Cheesman Park.

You know the bus stop in @denverparksrec #CheesmanPark isn't #ADAcompliant, making this even more of an issue.

Are you OK with this @DenverPerfect10 & @HRCPDenver?

I still need someone to explain to me how this sidewalk installation in @denverparksrec #CheesmanPark is acceptable, but #CongressPark is not.

Anyone?
@DenverPerfect10, @CityofDenver, @DenverDOTI, @HRCPDenver, @DenverCASR...
