Marion Road Children’s Play Ground

Locals with kids know Marion Road well — it’s one of those no-frills neighbourhood spots that just gets the job done. The climbing structure keeps older ones busy while the swings and slides give the little ones something to work with too, so it handles the 2-to-12 age gap pretty well. It’s urban, it’s straightforward, and it’s the kind of place you can walk to on a weekday afternoon without making a whole thing of it. Nothing fancy, but that’s kind of the point.
