Looks great! The rendering makes the cove look small and prime for Swiss cheesing, but if the park is 60 acres and Wethersfield’s Cove Park is 110 acres, maybe it’ll be bigger than it seems.

Yeah, the article says the cove is anticipated to be 9-10 acres, but could be potentially larger depending on the proposal.  Either way, significantly smaller than Wethersfield.

That does look interesting, if they move forward. One of the best aspects is that it's not immediately adjacent to the MDC sewage treatment plant outfall like WC.
