The Gold Coast Park on the 700 block of Ripley St. is considered a gem by both residents and visitors. In order to keep this gem sparkling, GC-HHDA members consistently get involved with park projects. Saturday, April 20, 2013 was such a day with projects of shoring up a portion of the retaining wall that had fallen, taking down a dying tree and general clean up of the area. 15 neighbors participated and made short work of the tasks. This was the fourth repair job of the wall, and there are now only 2 fir trees left of the original planted about 17 years ago. The Beautification Committee is working on replacement trees to shelter and beautify the area.
