The Town of Richmond Hill has really done it this time... but why after I leave my long time home do you do it... and so darn well!
Previously, anyone who had visited the "shore line" of what used to be called Sunset beach park, could describe it as a hillbilly holiday. Burnt out picnic shelters, limited walking, over grown green space, unofficial fire pits and a really rough looking overall water front littered with broken glass, dead/dying trees and garbage...
Fast-forward to this spring, and things are starting to look pretty amazing along Sunset Beach Rd. A new boardwalk (an actual boardwalk) complete with gorgeous flowerbeds, a walkway that will extend out and over the water in a gorgeous arc, copper/bronze statues and figurines and the whole area is looking spic and span.
You might even say it's got... new park smell!
But the town isn't done yet, they've got plans that are almost finished which include a splash pad for the kids and a revitalized park and picnic area!
Definitely a stay-cation destination for this summer, and for those fellas looking for the opportunity to pop the big question on a beach on the cheap... don't do an all inclusive in the islands.... just wait for a warm summers night and head to this board walk at sunset, she won't be disappointed!
