| - As recently as 2 years ago, this would have been a 5 star review.
Unfortunately, the city is revamping all of its playgrounds.
I hate them.
They have horrifying new age designs which are difficult to play on.
Removed:
Normal swings
Added:
Terrible circular shaped swings, which you have to lie on. Therefore, you cannot swing yourself. Swinging leads to nausea.
Removed:
Monkey bars, which are among the most fun and functional pieces of equipment. This is probably the healthiest thing a child can do in the park.
Removed:
Simple fort / climbing structures. Children can actually on these structures and run around.
Added:
Uneven rope objects which are difficult if not impossible to actually climb, stand on, or sit on.
Added:
Cement ping pong tables. Useless. The ball just doesn't bounce the same.
There are plenty of great amenities, which is why 3 stars is still: dog park, hockey rink, small baseball field, tennis courts.
