We're upgrading the Oppenheimer Park playground to provide much-needed enhanced play space for children and caregivers.
We want to create a playground that is safe, inclusive, and fun. This means:
- A play space that is safe and easy to observe
- Resilient, engaging, and fun play equipment
- Play equipment that encourages group play for children of all ages and abilities
- Seating and picnic areas that provides opportunities for learning and socializing
New playground features
- A large play structure for older kids
- A play structure for young kids
- Rubber surfacing
- A seesaw
- Creative learning activities
- Seating and picnic area
What's happeningReview the concept design for the new playground
Construction of the new playground is anticipated to start in summer-fall 2024 and be completed by spring-summer 2025. The playground will be closed to the public during construction.
