These are all outside links so you'll probably want add this page to your "Favorites" list so you can come back here easily.

In a quick search for Andrew Kessler, the following links came up,

Downtown Express ...Ortenzio said he got the idea for a skateboard park after a few mothers asked him about it thissummer. The 8,800.square-foot park, designed by 41-year.old skateboarder Andrew Kessler, has a bowl shaped stunt area, a rare amenity for city skateboarders, a mini-haIf pipe and a street course. It is open 2 p.m. to dusk during the week and 10 a.m. to dusk on weekends.....
