As a longtime advocate of capping the Ike, which sadly never came to fruition, I’m pleased to see Ike-spanning proposals that include an element of partially using the airspace. Because the park system is so stressed, it would be great to have some adult-oriented recreation opportunities so that, for example, softball isn’t relegated to the wee hours in order not to diminish youth programming. Maybe a little adult-oriented food and beverage could be worked into the mix. Federal approval would be a piece of cake – just name it after our beloved President. The Donald J. Trump Bellyacher and Whine Bar comes to mind.
