E 8th St and Haven Ave Playground

Good spot for families with kids of different ages — the play areas are actually split up so the little ones aren’t getting steamrolled by older kids, which you don’t always see at neighborhood parks. The climbing structure and merry-go-round get a solid workout on weekends, and the swings are always in decent shape. Shaded benches mean parents aren’t stuck standing in the sun, which honestly makes a big difference in the summer heat down here. There’s a basketball court on site too, so older kids have somewhere to actually burn off energy while the younger ones do their thing.
