@luckyall Everything is correct but I have something to say about the first one. The first one, "That was nowhere near a park" could be used differently depending on context. For example, it could mean, "This is nowhere next to a park" or like your shown example, it could mean that the given place isn't close to being similar to a park. Hope this helps!
