City officials in Denver plan to close Civic Center Park, beginning as soon as Wednesday, because of safety concerns, crime issues, and a host of other problems.
“It’s not safe to walk through the park,” said Scott Gilmore, Deputy Executive Director of Parks and Recreation, during a phone interview Tuesday morning with CBS4.
“We need to take back the park,” said Gilmore, noting several violent incidents in and around the park recently.
