> half of Richmond Park has already been built over.

Richmond Park is still the same size today as it always has been. The "Richmond Park" housing development hasn't been built on any of the park itself. It's been built over the old housing estate of Oatlands.

> All signage has been removed from cranhill Park

There was a plan to redevelop Cranhill Park a little bit. They were going to un-culvert the Light Burn that has been buried underneath it and do some landscaping stuff, then reintroduce water voles to the area. I don't know if that is still going to happen, but it might be the case that the signs have been removed as part of a planned rebranding as part of all that.

> croftcroighn Park

They were doing works in Croftcroighn Park to improve ground drainage and were going to redo the paths. Both Cranhill and Croftcroighn Parks were supposed to get redeveloped to link better with Hogganfield. You know, thinking about it, these two parks might end up getting rolled into the Seven Lochs scheme.

> Sandyhills park is currently a building site.

They are putting in a new footbridge and un-culverting the Tollcross Burn here. There is a decent bit of investment going into the east end parks right now.
