In reply to MB Kwlligg.

This Park has gone through transitions long before VRM came on board. The Park’s original name was actually North Park.

The reason that we (VRM) specifically dropped “Lincoln” is solely for marketing purposes — very much like how “OSH” is really Orchard Supply Hardware and “Mainland” on Mooney Blvd is actually Mainland Surf & Skate.

The Park is still officially named Lincoln Oval Park, but even Parks and Recreation dropped “Lincoln” from the sign.

I hope this explanation was helpful.

To make people use the park all the time you would need a full-time security guard to keep the homeless and others out.

If you are so concerned with the history of this park, why do you call it ‘Oval Park’ instead if the Luncoln Oval. It’s dishonorable to delete the name.
