Skaters take notice: the city, in coordination with the Community Development Agency and Grindline Skate Parks, has designed a new skate park within the 11-acre Lafayette Park on Eastern Avenue in the Flint, and feedback is welcome. 

According to its website, Seattle-based Grindline Skate Parks delivers cutting-edge service that “translates community needs” to “innovative terrain” where parks and grounds gain new commission-based concrete topography. Grindline follows the entire process from design and construction services “including site analysis, community outreach, conceptual design, cost estimation,” to execution of the final product.

To date, the company, founded in 2002, has completed over 350 projects globally.
