Photo Description: this is the point of land on the furthest eastern extent of Veteran's Park; the bicycle path loops through here; the land juts out into the Lake near the North Gap harbor entry; from this point, you are just a couple dozen meters to the end of Government Pier, but you cannot walk to it--some people walk out here thinking they can get to Government Pier
