Why these ages?

Compact medium-sized playground with a summer splash pad (shallow designed water play), infant swings, basket swing, spring toy, rocker and a multi-play with slide. Half basketball court adds interest for tweens. Gazebo over BBQ/picnic, toilets, drinking fountain, off-street parking on quiet residential Northwood Ave. Splash pad and equipment mix hit toddler and primary well; only one review (poor rating) says the park is smaller than the site allows.

    Small and outdated the land could be used to have a more substantial park but all you see is a small play set stuck in a corner with plenty of room to expand upon .
