No article, but from the pic alone: a hedge around the outside to absorb traffic noise would make this a more human-enjoyable space. Also, the best shade tree in the park appears to be in a place where no one can easily sit under it without walking though a fountain. How about some stepping stones across the pond?

It’s interesting that they’re using a natural (non chlorine) filtration system that just needs time to be calibrated and balance out and the water will start looking normal.

However, I still think this is a poorly designed park. Not because of the heart, I like the heart, I just don’t understand why you fill the entire centre of the park with an area that people can’t walk, and push everyone and the tiny scraps of greenspace right next to the road. Make the heart a creek instead of a pond, with cute little bridges over it, and now you can have a nice area in the center that’s slightly separated from traffic with more room for greenspace.
