After reviewing Mark Scott and the Dreamland team's involvement with Oregon's Burnside skatepark, and considering upon the potential benefits to their urban renewal initiative, Lincoln City's Parks & Recreation staff granted Dreamland artistic license, and immediate modifications were made to the park's conceptual design and layout.
The result reflected the local participant's current and potential skateboarding proficiency, resulting in an expansion of the park and a more intricate set of obstacles directly focused upon challenging the local participants for years to come.
The Lincoln City skatepark gained immediate international recognition, being awarded a "'9' out of a possible '10'" by Thrasher Skateboarding Magazine (December 1999), the skateboarding community's leading international journal, raising the bar for skatepark designs around the world. |

| "Dreamland takes the concept of building a park, gathers input from the local community, and they build terrific skateparks. They do great work, and are easy to work with. We are having them back to build Lincoln City another facility this fall (2002)." |
