“For the first time ever, in the history of Fishers, (Geist Reservoir) will be accessible to people who can’t afford to buy a home that costs a million dollars.  That means a lot to us as a community.”

This quote is from Mayor Scott Fadness during his 2022 State of the City address last Thursday.  The city held an open house Saturday to show the community Geist Waterfront park, which he was explaining in that quote.

The temperature was in the low 30s, but with the wind chill factor felt a lot colder than that.  That didn’t stop a throng of people, including many families with small children, from looking around, and many were on the playground, on the swings and other facilities.

Plans are to have the official opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for Geist Waterfront Park in March of 2023.

Here are a few photos from my journey around the new park.
