Rejected again by ML. Maybe the colour of the wood doesn’t stand out enough against the grey concrete surface. I think my only option now is to lodge an appeal?
I appealed mine because i cant pass ML. But its ur call. U can try another angle or try getting there when there is less car and take the previous photo but without car
I just got my nomination of observation deck rejected by ml too. Thinking to return to take another photo but its tricky because many people take photo

I’ve appealed the second rejection. I know some of you felt I should focus on the picnic table, but this didn’t help it get past ML and I prefer the photo in this submission, because it shows the extent of the seating area, where at least 12 people can sit together.
Here’s what I put in the appeal, in case this helps others:
"I believe the decision made by eMiLy is incorrect and the submission does meet Wayfarer criteria.
-
Eligibility Criteria.
I have explained in the Description and Supplemental Information why this picnic area is a great place to be social with others. It is a permanent physical, tangible and identifiable place. In particular, I feel the nomination aligns with the Wayfarer Criteria Clarification, which explains that “Picnic areas and tables that appear to be permanent, even if not bolted to the ground like those above, are great places for socialization.” Picnic Areas -
Acceptance Criteria.
The location is safe and publicly accessible by pedestrians and the submission contains accurate information about the wayspot. -
Rejection Criteria.
The location is not:
- private residential;
- adult oriented;
- interfering with emergency services;
- a sensitive location;
- a generic business.
The location, text, description and photo are not abusive.
The text, decription and photo meet eligibility criteria.
The nomination is not fake.
The nomination does not attempt to influence reviewers."
Glad it worked out.
I submitted a similar circumstance today
