Let's hope they aren't completed, especially with landscaping. The green areas need green...and maybe another load of rock to finish the shoreline. I guess the fake grass/green floor under the swings didn't make the cut.
The red circles... that's just cheapness. The wiring should have been black on the railings and covered with a cap along the platform base. The ride controls should have been in a straight conduit and run so it doesn't look so temporary. Same for the underside of the two black poles.
As someone said above, the two large bases before the ride platform should have, at the very least, painted rocks to blend with the castle stones.
Is just those little touches that separate the good from the so-so. Hopefully they'll address them.
Color me picky.

Sometimes in industrial wiring you have to use flex, or in this case liquid tight where there is a chance of heavy vibration where a transfer between one surface to another occurs. Also sometimes due to the shape of the required bend flex is the only option. NEC says you can not have more than 360 degrees worth of bed between two boxes. 180 degrees is best practice. As such sometimes flex is a better option because it can curve in ways stiff wall can't. Pipe bending is a true art form.
As someone who has bent quite a bit of emt when I saw that work I shook my head.
It really is pretty great. Just rode it. It is awesome. Especially if you ride where you face the water at the top.
I think I saw you on the bridge earlier but it wasn't me that you were talking to.
I’ll upload more later, but here is some of what I go today.
