After Hours
I've visited Gold Medal Park plenty of times, but until recently, never at dusk. The view from the top of the park's sculpted hill is even more dramatic as night approaches. The lights under the Stone Arch Bridge cast small pools of radiance on the river waters below. The nearby Guthrie is illuminated in subdued blues, golds, and reds. And on the other side of the river are the neon signs of the businesses lining St. Anthony Main. For a place that is nearly smack dab in the middle of downtown, the park is remarkably hush once the sun sets. The kind of hush that encourages whispered conversations.
