Location: 56th & Webster (park extends to Christian and 55th); playground on north side
Date visited: 10/31/10
Equipment: Big stretch of swings, including 8 strap and 4 bucket, and two playsets:
- Smaller has a 3-4 foot platform with lots of climbing of varied difficulty and one metal slides. There are also two hobby horses in this area (one horse and one pelican).
- Larger has platforms from 4-6 feet high, lots of climbing, and two straight metal slides of different heights.
Ages: 2-7
Surface: rubbery around equipment; blacktop elsewhere
Shade(0-3): 0
Water: N
Other: swimming pool, basketball court, large grassy field (including a baseball diamond), large rec. center. and tennis courts with no nets
Access: not posted
Impressions: Weathered but perfectly adequate older playground. Hobby horses and extra swings are pluses, as are the range of ladder types for curious climbers. But nothing special here to pull anybody from outside the neighborhood.
Overall rating: 6
