Deficient article
The lead starts off with a falsehood. Marine Park, Brooklyn is a twentieth centrury counter example that easily comes to mind: larger than Prospect Park and constructed in the first half of the twentieth century. Then there's Robert Moses Shore Parkway, built in the 1930's. Then there was the major reconstruction of city parks, Brooklyn included, that occured in the latter half of the 1930's. Zoos, bandshells, swimming pools, playgrounds were installed, giving Brooklyn Parks much of their present-day look-and-feel. All of these were major developments that have taken place since Prospect Park was, for the most part, completed in 1873. See the references following Prospect Park article for some material on park reconstructions and developments.(Addressed by Gosgood [1])- The park doesn't actually exist yet. WP:CRYSTAL applies here.
The article hosts a political screed; Wikipedia should not be used to host community debates.(Addressed by Asbowie [2])
I'm still half-temped to propose this article for deletion, but perhaps there are a few referenced facts that could be stated about this article. It will need to be rebuilt, with no screeds from either side of the debate. Gosgood (talk) 14:40, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
