In keeping with the theme above, a design for the new mural has been selected which depicts Riverside Park, Past and Present.  Based on historical information, including news articles, the left half of the mural imagines how the area may have looked around 1911, when "Warner Park" was established (named after the gentleman who sold the land to the city).  Baseball, picnics, foot races, and other activities were among those listed in the news announcing the annual picnic around that time.  The right half of the mural includes some of the current playground equipment at Riverside Park, along with a few activities one might see there today.  The mural was designed by Anita Gordon and Sally Meyne.  The final mural will look similar to these sketches below.
