Reopening Whiskey Island/new bridge dedication

Good Words

Speak the truth. Speak it loud and often, calmly but insistently, and speak it, as the Quakers say, to power. Material accumulation is not the purpose of human existence. All growth is not good. The environment is a necessity, not a luxury. There is such a thing as "enough."

— Donella Meadows

Celebrate the city's tranquil green space by the lake (and the only park owned by Cuyahoga County) -- Whiskey Island and the U.S. Coast Guard Station will reopen to the public with the dedication (at 3 pm) of a new bridge on the only road leading in. Through the work of County Engineer Robert Klaiber, a bridge for bicyclists and pedestrians was also built alongside the auto bridge to connect with a proposed bike path from Edgewater Park.
