• Root Ball Park

    An Idea

    The Root Ball Park is a concept proposed by Brooklyn based VAMOS Architects for Governors Island. It didn’t happen there. We hope we can make it happen here in Coshocton.

On the side, we met Detroit Klutch’s female vocalist Robin Renee at an  Evan Abood  gig.  They are cousins and obviously share an important  music gene.
