Read more about this location
This inclusive playground sits in the courtyard between Lewis and Clark halls at the University of Missouri School of Health Professions. University materials describe wheelchair-accessible structures and towers, a Braille station, a music keyboard with drums, adaptive swings for different mobility levels, an enclosed merry-go-round, and an adjustable basketball hoop. It appears especially relevant for families connected to therapy, preschool services, or campus clinics, though public visitor logistics are less clearly documented than at city parks.
