Should every facility managed by a government entity be bound by laws inacted well after they were created? How do you finance the enormous cost of retrofitting these facilities? When does common sense become part of the equation?

Thanks for the response. Central Park was constructed during a time when ADA wasn't law. What specific parts of Central Park aren't up to code? Are you specifically requesting improvements done within the park after ADA was enacted should be at a minimum level? The reason I ask is because this is a very large publicly owned and managed entity that would likely cost multi-millions or billions to completely upfit up to current standards. I'm also wondering who should bear the expense of these improvements? Should other NYC programs lose funding in order to have the park upfitted?
