Not really a lot to review. There’s a slide and a fountain for kids to muck about on, which is nice and memorable and a landmark, more or less. But it’s hard to call it a playground. It’s good for parents to let their kid run around while doing shopping though. Cuba Street is very fun, though, so this is a nice place to get a rest in the middle of it all.
Cuba Street Playground
115 Cuba Street, Te Aro, Wellington 6011
Access notes
A review describes the slide as sitting on safe matting in central Cuba Mall, a pedestrian precinct. The description itself does not mention surface, path, parking or toilet accessibility, so confidence is capped for a single-review signal.
What's here
Cuba Street Playground is a small, compact play stop on Cuba Street in Te Aro, right in Wellington's inner city cafe strip, with a junior slide and a play statue sized for toddlers and young children rather than a longer visit.
