More surprisingly than not people have weddings here because of the backdrop. It’s not just the fountain but beyond that on the other side of the land of the street is a land of the lost! Or… just a pretty forresty area that is really cute for pictures and relaxing. The only thing honestly that kills the waterfall is that there’s a bench with Honest Abe chillin right in front of the waterfall facing the street now, and that there is a STREET right there. Though it’s great while passing by and during the winter they dress it up really nicely with lights, if you’re passing by you may think to yourself«why the hell would anyone have their wedding photos here? Or why would they hang out here in the first place?!» But give it a go. If someone creepy walks by there’s a monster police station across the street. And a bus stop next to a big empty lot.

My first real makeout spot! Oh, I don’t normally miss high school, but right now all I want to do is spend three hours sitting on top of the waterfall waiting for the best time to make a grab for a boob. Pretty nice waterfall that served as the backdrop to a lot of great kissing in my younger days. In the fall, when they shut the water off, I used to love rollerblading in here. That was before they built the police station across the street. More recently, my time at the waterfall has been spent perched on top with a book, or a friend having some very«serious» discussion. Ok, so we were high again and reading Kierkegaard. There are worse ways to spend an evening.
