Show Notes
Huntridge Park has been fenced off since 2020, stranded in the middle of Maryland Parkway and stuck in decades of controversy. Host Sonja Cho Swanson talks with Friends of Huntridge Park co-founders Freddy Godinez and Randy Mendre about the park’s turbulent history, from its postwar heyday to repeated closures tied to safety, access, and homelessness. They lay out why some neighbors would rather keep it closed — and why that might be a mistake. Plus, a bold vision for how this forgotten green space could become a cultural hub for downtown Las Vegas again, with help from UNLV landscape architecture students.
