Independence Park is one of central Indiana's strongest all-abilities playground destinations and is officially described as Indiana's first all-accessible playground area for persons with disabilities. The remodeled playground includes all-inclusive components for ages 2-12 on rubberized surfacing, a sensory-friendly music area, and the state's first Yalp Sona Arch interactive play feature. Families also get a zero-grade wheelchair-accessible trail, additional asphalt walking paths, picnic shelters, a gazebo overlooking the playground, and nearby accessible basketball features. It works especially well for mixed-age visits that need room to move, predictable surfaces, and enough variety to stay longer than a quick neighborhood stop.
