More dirty deeds in darkened back rooms by the City of Hamilton! What a shame, and again over Spooky Nook. Let SN prove its worth before forcing people out of homes, destroying the parks and splash pad! The accelerated rate of gentrification here is all falling on the North End, outrageous!! Will the city be paying fair market value?! Doubtful. Sneaky, sneaky. We see you.

My grandparents lived on Ford Blvd., now Joe Nuxhall. They have long passed but the joy that this street, ball fields, park and long passed swimming pool offered was something kids enjoy(ed). Many people still live here, rents, housing more affordable here. Go somewhere else with your project and leave them alone

Don’t take our childhood away from us that grew up in the north end. That’s all we had/have is our childhood memories

The ball fields and splash pad are the only thing the kids on the north end have. It would be wrong to take it from them.

We live on Reservoir St. and love having the park and splash pad with in walking distance. My Autistic daughter loves walking to the park daily in the summer to enjoy the splash pad and swings.

I played there my whole life I watched my dad play there. This was the softball capital of the world some of the best players to ever lace up a set of cleats played ball right there it would be a shame to see this park not there .

I live in the middle and my kids and family would be effected by this don’t agree with this. The park is a place for the kids to play and their friends are here

Very Fond of the North end, especially where Fords Pool used to be, went there quite often as a kid, Ball fields were right next door and always fun to watch a Good baseball game

I am signing this petition in regards of concerns for our neighborhood. One of the biggest concerns is health related due to The North Crossing possibly digging through the Chem Dyne site. This can cause damage to the surrounding people not only the North End, but in the surrounding areas too. Toxins can be detrimental to any human or animal. People have pets and all. The initiators of this project seems to lack the knowledge to empathize with the community and our concerns.

Enough is enough. You are removing everything near and dear to the people that care and have lived here all their lives. No greenery,no pools,no place for kids to be kids. Time to stop the madness.
