** Newest photos added 8/19/06 **More construction begins on July 7, 2006. Well, it looks like they’re going ahead with Phase 2 now…

Thanks to some outspoken skateboarders and local citizens, the builders have been given the go-ahead to add a 16-foot kidney shaped skate bowl.

Franklin skate park construction signs.“The original estimate involved only a plaza, but skateboarders and skaters at a public forum encouraged the city to make the park more challenging with a bowl.”
—Lisa Clayton, City Parks Director

  • The kidney-shaped skate bowl will be built by California Skateparks. 
  • Plans are for the skate park to be completed by August 31st.

We moved from Florida to Tennessee in 2001. All signs point to the fact that we will probably retire here — by choice. We L O V E Nashville! Our favorite places to live are just south of the City — we’ve had houses in Brentwood, Franklin, and Spring Hill. And we have properties in Leipers Fork, Cookeville, and Lewisburg. This site is where I share my best tips for moving your family to Nashville and/or visiting Nashville for the first time — with the ultimate goal of helping you find fun things to do in Williamson County and Davidson County. When I’m not out & about enjoying the Nashville area, you’ll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I’ve written over 500 articles on this site! Many of them have upwards of 100K shares.
