Skateparks are very important to youth culture and community by giving participants a place to be active and artistic. Especially teenager full of youthful angst have a place to go they can call their own and stay out of trouble.(Healdsburg , 2018-04-25)

I am signing because I am down to back up anyone whom is trying to preserve Freedom & Culture! Not only skate culture but the fact that it's a DIY park.. people from that community came together to build something where they can express their feelings through art.One aspect of True Freedom for the people of Helsinki is in
Suvilahti Skatepark
If the city can't back that then they are showing signs of Babylon!!

I'd love to keep this open for the local skaters that love this park or people that want to visit(San Antonio, 2018-04-26)

Keep the park! Its an attraction for the neighborhood, and as a local originally from Oregon, i know the park will boost property values all around it. That's what we learned in city after city, especially Portland, Oregon that changed its mind on skateparks and now has more per capita than any other city, with rapidly rising property values.(Helsinki, 2018-04-26)

This skatepark has historical and cultural value. It needs to stay intact because there is less and less spots for skaters everyday and if you don’t want us skating the streets then keep the park.(Hamilton , 2018-04-26)

Finland has always had one of the strongest skate scenes in the world. Local skateboarders building underground spots is a big part of the global skate culture that helps to provide an out of the way place be together as a united family to have fun and express our creativity.Please keep Suvilahden alive and thriving for current and future skateboarders. THANK YOU!

DIY skateparks can bring together entire communities of people who otherwise wouldn't have met. They're hugely important in the skateboarding community as they allow the skaters themselves to determine exactly what is built.(Broadstairs , 2018-04-26)

Tontti on nykyisessä tilassaan ja käytössä arvokas sekä suojeluskelpoinen johtuen sen yhteisötoiminnan historiasta ja nykyisestä elinvoimasta. Sen tärkeää urbaanista kulttuuriarvoa ei pitäisi sivuuttaa sillä perustein että se ei tuo suoraa rahallista tuloa, mutta sen epäsuorat hyödyt ovat myös rahallisissa termeissä huomattavat. Tämä toimintaympäristö tuo suunnattomasti lisäarvoa Helsingin houkutuskelpoisuuteen ja sen kosmopoliittisen elämänlaadun portfolioon. Lisäksi sen integroiminen nykyisessä tilassaan osana tulevan asuinalueen urheilun ja vapaa-ajan palveluita, olisi täysin täysin tehtävissä soveltumaan koherentisti aluekaavotuksen "ambiitioihin" tulevaa kaupinginosaa varten.(Helsinki, 2018-04-27)

This place is a cultural landmark and I one day wanted to travel to Finland for this exact park. Please look at example of skateparks built by the community itself all over the world and you'll find that they do nothing but good for whatever areas of town they're out in. Not only increasing spending in the local economy from travelers but providing a cleaner environment than a barren lot while also giving the youth a place to work and spend time effectively deterring these kids from otherwise negatives habits. Do it for the kids <3(South San Francisco , 2018-04-29)

I’m sick of all these government pricks trying to ruin the small percentage of the world we have to create new things and ultimately network with other skaters. All so they can try and make more money to spend on building more profitable buildings.(Cannock, 2018-05-01)

Skating is ******* rad and the memory’s and expieriences should not be erased with demolishing the park.. these things have a big impact on a lot of people and it’s upsetting when something so great is taken away and replaced with bullshit!!(Ludgershall, 2018-05-01)

Spots all across the world are sanction to skateboarders traveling, let alone to locals aspiring to learn skating and what it involves. By saving Suvilahti it’ll allow kids a new outlet in life, a safe place to interact with others, as well as a great landmark within the Helsinki community. This place means a great amount not only to the locals skating it, but to the general population of skaters across the world seeking betterment for their community just alike. Please save Suvilahti!(San Diego , 2018-05-01)
