It is widely speculated that this land was simply bought as part of Pawlowski's Pay-to-Play operations as a favor to Atiyeh, and this land purchase may very well be at the center of the FBI investigation. <br /><br />Clearly, the city has enough parks. And clearly, the city is doing a horrible job of maintaining some of these parks. It is irresponsible and arrogant to accept further responsibility for even more parks at a time when the city cannot take care of what it already has.Monkey Mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00810902920873689184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951782330457966647.post-7358102662547627432016-11-15T10:01:27.916-05:002016-11-15T10:01:27.916-05:00Doesn't Allentown already have the highest per...Doesn't Allentown already have the highest percentage of park space of any city in the country?

Also the closure and subsequent renovation of Kline's Bridge meant less access to the park.
