I did not realize that Dashing-Pacific was selling the land at The Docks that is home to restaurants. 

Back in 2011, Dashing Pacific "bought":http://www.toledoblade.com/business/2011/03/19/The-Docks-sale-by-city-to-Chinese-is-finalized-2.html  The Docks land.

q.
The city of Toledo closed a $2.15 million deal Friday to sell The Docks restaurant and entertainment complex to two Chinese investors.

Ownership of the *seven-acre riverfront property* in East Toledo now belongs to Dashing Pacific Group Ltd., *a U.S. corporation* formed by investors Yuan Xiaohona and Wu Kin Hung.

Also in 2011, Dashing Pacific "bought":http://www.toledoblade.com/Real-Estate/2011/10/27/Chinese-investors-herald-grand-plans-for-Toledo-Marina-District.html 69 acres of the 120-plus acres that comprise the Marina District.

q.
Dashing Pacific, owned by Mr. Hung and Yuan Xiaohong, bought the 69-acre Marina District from the city for $3.8 million in July [2011].
q..

Four years later, Dashing Pacific "announced":http://www.toledoblade.com/local/2015/07/09/Dashing-Pacific-to-sell-Marina-District-property.html its intention to sell the 69 acres of Marina District land.

br. _"I also think that the new park should NOT be thought of as a park only for East Toledo. It should be designed to be a metro- or regional draw ..."_

No need for concern.  The park will be managed by the county-wide entity Metroparks and not the city of Toledo.



br. _"BTW, is there a new name for the park? Any suggestions?"_

*Bulldog McCloskey Park*
