The “park ‘n slide” is one of the more colorful ideas found in the published version of Gainesville’s new concept plan to guide growth and development in and around the downtown square.
Imagine this: You’ve parked your car on the top floor of the courthouse parking deck in downtown Gainesville. The elevator is running slow and you don’t care to take the stairs three flights to the ground level. But a third option is available: a spiral slide like that found at a children’s playground.
