Honestly I'd rather see something else in that spot. While I'm sure this would be popular and attract people, I think putting it by the boathouses on the river would be more appropriate . At least part of my feeling (if not much of it) comes from the fairgrounds-type pictures they provided. A nicer design would get more support from me.

That said, I would not be upset if they built this thing here. It might be cool. I'm just having trouble visualizing it.
