Read more about this location
Olivia's Playground is a year-round inclusive playground at Center Street Park designed so children and adults of all abilities can play and move together. Official materials describe adapted slides, swings, and jungle-gym style equipment for children with special needs, along with a wrought-iron perimeter fence and evening lighting for added comfort. A quarter-mile walking loop circles the play area, and adult fitness equipment with ADA-accessible stations sits nearby, making this a strong multigenerational stop rather than just a quick neighborhood swing set.
