Libbie Mill Playground

Honestly, this one could’ve been so much better with just a little more thought put into it. The slides and swings get the job done, but on a hot Richmond summer day, there’s zero shade — and we’re talking *zero* — which means the equipment gets scorching and kids can’t really use it during peak hours. There’s a fence situation near a hill that has parents nervous, and the lack of a toddler-specific area means it’s not great for the little ones. Families in the area keep asking for a splash pad, which honestly makes total sense given how brutal the humidity gets here.
