Accessibility at Liberty Park


I took some photos at the Liberty Park area to show architectural accessibility. 
This is where 8 Great Tuesdays concerts happen, but you can visit anytime.
Photos show:
🔷  The area is modern and heavily paved. Paved areas connect to each other smoothly.
🔷. Two sets of porta-johns (one in parking lot, the other ar Northeast corner of park), both have a wheelchair accessible version.
🔷  There are inside bathrooms in Park & Ride building where concert shuttle leaves people off. 
These days may only be open with certain events.
🔷. Water faucet for filling bottles and cups, by playground
🔷. Pink unit in playground is for nursing mothers.  
🔷  Great venue but little protection from sun so bring your own as needed.
🔷  I didn't take photos of playground because kids were playing there.
🔷. I don't know the situation for wheelchairs and shuttle buses.

I counted 400 paces from Park and Ride building to park entrance. Persons with walkers and canes will probably be better off arriving in the parking lot

Entrance from sidewalk is smooth
portable toilets in paved parking lot

nursing station in playground, paved access

Water faucet. Accessible height but button may be an issue if hand/arm strength is an issue. Restrooms shown in background help give bearings. Surface in front of faucet is paved 

Drinking water on left side, accessible restroom on right. 

Much of the audience sits on the grassy hill.

Paved area in front of stage.
