Pierce Park

Posted by wadedorrell on 28 December 2019 in English.

Recently I’ve spent time improving detail in the Pierce Park neighborhood of Boise. This area has seen development over the last 10 years and OSM hadn’t quite caught up. Recently neighborhood discussions have been about private/public parks (that were not actually on the map, or weren’t quite bounded correctly), walking/bike routes (commonly used paths were not shown on the map) and canals (even major canals were missing.) I was able to get a majority of that cleaned up where it intersects Pierce Park Ln, as well as fix some issues with bus routes and parks to the west/southwest.

Although my duty is here (I live in this area) I’ll also try to cover the State St. corridor a bit better, as well as insure all NW Boise canals and feeders in the area are mapped, since there are a surprising number of them and they may become pathways in the future.
