Welcome to Greenhills Skate Park thread which is dedicated to the skate community here in Greenhills. Junedale.com will be the official website that will host all things Greenhills Skate Park ( GSP).
Today is a significant day as we had some of the top street skaters in the US in town and looking over the development. Joe Castucci founder of Habitat has been advising the construction of the park. Joe is a local product of Cincinnati and travels the world filming the Habitat Skate Team while creating and developing skate lines. Attached Image  |

Measuring the space between boxes is critical to the flow of the pad.

The boxes are forms for the concrete to be poured into. Once they have hardened they provide several different challenges for the skater to master..

Uncle you asked if it was done yet in the other thread. Well it is almost done. Still have to let the concrete cure, plus get a sign, plus lay the black top around a small part of it. It's almost done though.

What a beautiful day! I have some updated photos of the GSP, it appears that there is still some fill-in work that needs to be done to transition from concrete to asphalt. This first picture is the top of the run heading east.
