"As recently as 2 years ago, this would have been a 5 star review.\n\nUnfortunately, the city is revamping all of its playgrounds. \n\nI hate them.\n\nThey have horrifying new age designs which are difficult to play on.\n\n\nRemoved: \nNormal swings\n\nAdded:\nTerrible circular shaped swings, which you have to lie on. Therefore, you cannot swing yourself. Swinging leads to nausea.\n\nRemoved: \nMonkey 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.\n\nRemoved: \nSimple fort / climbing structures. Children can actually on these structures and run around.\n\nAdded: \nUneven rope objects which are difficult if not impossible to actually climb, stand on, or sit on.\n\nAdded: \nCement ping pong tables. Useless. The ball just doesn't bounce the same.\n\n\nThere are plenty of great amenities, which is why 3 stars is still: dog park, hockey rink, small baseball field, tennis courts."^^ . . "1"^^ .
