Side Note: Downtown Frederick - Carroll Creek Park

Date: 06/16/2010

Distance: Minimal

Start Time: 10:20am End Time: 10:35am

Carroll Creek Park is a neat area to walk the next time you are in Downtown Frederick, it is basically a brick walkway with a canal running down the middle of it with coffee and eating places along it with apartments, art schools and a library. Downtown Frederick in itself is a neat area to walk around, but I enjoy Carroll Creek Park when I am in Frederick for work and have some extra time. They have a really cool bridge which was painted by an artist to look 3d and was a task in itself the plackerd said something like a year or two of collecting ideas from area residences and online.
