The rebuilt play space includes four levels of wheelchair-accessible play, two elevated platforms, swings, six slides, climbers, game panels, and shade canopies. Families looking for a city playground with stronger mobility access and a more intentionally inclusive layout than a standard neighborhood park should find this one especially worthwhile.
