Wolverine, I'm not saying that we should return to 1913... those drives would be useless... but to design it as though the MCS isn't even there is what boggles the mind.... it's the 800 lb. gorilla in the landscape and it's being ignored.
I agree completely with your assessment of "sloppy asymmetry"... they could have split the park into 2 forested areas with a glen or lawn framed by an avenue of trees.
