Nearly a decade after community members installed a single basketball hoop on a corner lot along Cherokee St., Love Bank Park has been developed in a big way. “To see it actually happening was just pure magic,” said Eric "Prospect" White, a core leader of Love Bank Park’s redevelopment. The park, founded by neighborhood residents and business owners, “is more than just a space to play basketball,” said Pacia Elaine Anderson, a fellow leader of the park’s redevelopment. “It's something that could be a lifeline for people that need it.”
