LIC Park Observations 

Conducted by Kanusheree and Lakshman on Saturday at 4pm and Tuesday 2pm on sunny days

This waterfront plaza is filled with ledges, chairs, joggers, couples eating lunch, children and residential buildings. Its relative proximity (2-3 blocks) to the subway station allows for easy access and the park is wheelchair accesible as well. Although the stairs were decorative, they were quite useless because people did not use them or sit on them. The park is full of open green grass space and has semi-circle shaped shore-line where the center of park serves as walkway. People were usually concentrated on the sides and the space is not used very well. There are no office biudings but piers and a water terminal are in sight. For the objects that are not in sight, there are machines available for use as binoculars with change. Observers recommended a list of improvements/programming such as: canoeing, kayaking, boating to make use of water space, movie showing and the addition of statues.
