Looks like they are trying to get the park fixed up and running into opposition.

Figured this thread was ready for an update.

In November, the park received some artifacts from the former submarine USS Omaha, including the sail planes. Pictures available here on their Facebook page.

Also, according to their Facebook page, they are hoping to have the park re-opened this spring.

According to their Facebook page, the USS Hazard has been righted and the mast reattached.

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AGAIN AS OF SATURDAY!

Quote:
Four years after closing because of flood damage, Freedom Park reopened to the public Saturday.

The park and naval museum just north of downtown along the Missouri River, at 2497 Freedom Park Road, will be open every weekend in October from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., unless it snows. The park will reopen full time next spring.
