Black Diamond X-Park, previously known as X-Games Skatepark* and the Slippery Skatepark, at the Franklin Mills, I mean Philadelphia Mills Mall is trying to raise money to keep the park open. As of this post they’ve raised $1,335 of the 13K they are trying to raise. The lease is up and the landlord wants a “substantial security deposit down on the lease, and a significant chunk towards the insurance for the park“. I’m not sure what the exact breakdown of that price is but they need o raise the money by the end of May in order for the park to remain open.
* I think it was originally a Vans Park.
