But to your point about the concrete jungle. When there are events held there it is a bitch to find parking.

That's why the parking lots could be replaced with two small parking garages on either end of it with the required number of spots. The rest of the land could be developed into a walkable downtown, with 3, 4, 5, story buildings, mixed use, on street parking, parking shielded in the center of the blocks. The narrow strip of land along the lake itself would remain public.
