Samuel Street Recreation Ground play area

Honestly, this one’s pretty bare bones — just a swing set and an open grass field, which is fine if you’ve got a toddler who’s easily pleased. The rubber matting is there, but the state of it tells you everything you need to know about how often maintenance comes through. Broken glass on the floor is a regular complaint, so you’d want to check the area before letting little ones run loose. Teenagers tend to hang around in the evenings, which changes the vibe depending on when you visit. It does the job in a pinch, but it’s not somewhere most local parents would make a special trip for.
