Playground

Small but solid — this little spot in Irondequoit gets the job done for families with younger kids. The gated entry is a genuine selling point if you’ve got a runner on your hands, and parents around here definitely notice that kind of thing. It’s slide-heavy, so if your kid is obsessed with slides (and honestly, most 2-to-8-year-olds are), they’ll be happy. Good for a quick after-school stop when you don’t want to drive across town.
