  "<p align=\"justify\"><span class=\"style6\"><strong>Background</strong></span><br>" +
  "    <br>"+
 "   Creating and maintaining Downtown Sacramento as a true regional center has been the goal of the area's leaders since the city was founded. In recent years, however, developments in downtown have been overshadowed by developments elsewhere in the region. An opportunity now exists to add to the role of downtown by creating a regional cultural, recreational, and environmental asset as part of the downtown geography, not unlike Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, Balboa Park in San Diego, and Central Park in New York City.</p>"+
 " <p align=\"justify\">Gold Rush Park would be located at the confluence of the American and the Sacramento Rivers, a location of major historical significance. The reason Sacramento is here is because, at this junction, Captain John Sutter turned east to found his fort and build a small empire. Captain Sutter's empire flourished as the gold rush brought the world's population to the region. The descendants of these fortune hunters created the Sacramento region and now, 125 years later, nearly 2 million people spread across the intersection of these two rivers, reaching from the Delta to the Sierra Nevada foothills. In the blink of an eye there will be3 to 4 million people living here. What will this great metropolis find at this historic river junction? An industrial, commercial district or a world class park? </p>"+
  "<p><strong class=\"style6\">Need</strong><br><br>" +
"    A cultural and regional center is something the Sacramento region lacks. While downtown has the Old Sacramento Historical Park, the Community and Convention Centers, and the Crocker Art Gallery, it is not the region's center for professional sports, performing arts, recreational opportunities, and other activities which would bring a significant number of people to downtown days, nights, and weekends.</p>" +
"  <p>Meanwhile, an adjacent area just north of downtown languishes as abandoned rail yards, nearly-deserted factories and warehouses, and the old city dump, which combine to give a picture of neglect and misuse, adding nothing to the value of downtown as a regional center.</p>" +
"  <p>The Sacramento Region already has a strong and successful start on being the cultural and entertainment center of the northern valley because of its huge daytime population and its existing attractions such as the Community Center, the State Capitol, Old Sacramento and the Railroad Museum. Gold Rush Park would connect all the priceless and irreplaceable pieces of this large area, creating a world class cultural and recreational center for the region, a crown jewel all citizens could be proud of. </p>" +
"  <p><strong><span class=\"style6\">Concept and Benefits </span></strong><br>" +
 "     <br>" +
"    A group of community leaders has created a plan for a great urban park stretching from Old Sacramento and the confluence of the Sacramento and American Rivers all the way to Sutter's Landing Park. It is a concept that would seize an opportunity to claim some of the most environmentally sensitive land adjacent to downtown before it is permanently developed and its potential is lost forever.</p>" +
"  <p>Gold Rush Park would reclaim the industrial tract known as the Richards Boulevard corridor to provide Sacramento's &quot;Central Park.&quot; The area encompasses hundreds of acres, bordering on two premier recreational assets--Old Sacramento and the American River Parkway. The park would connect downtown Sacramento and West Sacramento to Cal Expo and CSUS in a cultural and recreational corridor of world class extent and content. It would encourage the riverfront development, helping revitalize West Sacramento and East Yolo.</p>" +
"  <p>This concept is not a marginal fine-tuning of existing planning, but is of a scale and vision to change the entire view of the metropolitan area. It would reconnect the entire Sacramento downtown and central city with the south bank of the American River. That stretch of the American River running east from its confluence with the Sacramento River is truly beautiful and potentially of enormous value to the region--lined with native trees, it has a clear blue-green water in which wild life abounds.</p>" +
"  <p>Possible Structures and Activities in the park:</p>" +
"  <p> &#8226;<em>A stadium complex</em> like the new Denver Pepsi Center, providing a venue for basketball, hockey, soccer, musical events and even a national convention. </p>" +
"  <p>&#8226;<em>A performing and musical arts center</em> with a number of smaller multi-venue settings for regional production of plays, music and art.</p>" +
"  <p>&#8226;<em>An environmental education center,</em> including a natural history center, nature trails, and a focus on the river and the natural environment of the great central valley. </p>" +
"  <p>&#8226;<em>A new Sacramento Zoo,</em> with the quality of the San Diego Zoo.</p>" +
"  <p>&#8226;<em>Soccer fields</em> and facilities for high school sports activities. </p>" +
"  <p>&#8226;Expanded river access, including a marina which could provide tours and aquatic sports, even an American River Otter shuttle to Cal Expo and other locations on the river.</p>" +
" <p class=\"style6\"><strong>Park Economics </strong></p>" +
"  <p>The Sacramento region is vibrant financially, and this park would be a major addition to the current $50 billion economy. Sacramento's economy is roughly the same size as Cincinnati, Kansas City, Indianapolis or Milwaukee. It is much larger that either New Orleans, home of the Super Dome, or Salt Lake City, former Winter Olympics site. A development of this size, over 30 years, could be comfortably financed by a community which will be growing to 3 to 4 million in population in that same time frame. The park would be financed in part by the increased revenues and taxes it would generate, donations and through the appropriate development of property integrated into and adjacent to the park. <br>" +
