New things are always being worked on at the trail that connects behind FDR,Head Sculpture by John Shahn and ends on Tamara Dr. Cause that one has the Empty Box Brook,which means the trail needs more maintenance. It is also my favorite part of all the many trails.The is a new 10 by 10 deck on that trail.It is perfect for yoga, playing music and dancing, I would assume.I use it for stretching and I was always taking my shoes off ,as not to get it dirty/ muddy..but..alas ,it is both now. But still..there it is..in the woods..along with a chalk board! Both are on opossite sides of the trail.Chalk board nearest to the Head & painted benches ,the Stage,in the clearing at the painted chairs towards Tamara. The other trails are wonderful.Lots of animals. The trails are dry. Shoes will stay clean Good drainage. Welcome to Roosevelt 1936
