Misc: Everything about this little ramp felt hostile, from the "more rules than park" problem, to the frowning guys cleaning fish, and the abrupt stretch of chainlink fence "caging" the skaters in. If the ramp was re-surfaced, it could be fun, but worth a stop? Hmm. There is a permanant restroom and drinking fountain nearby.
