Brooklyn playground with basketball courts and play equipment, though parents consistently report safety and cleanliness issues that may concern families with young children.

★★★★★Featured review by Tymur Akgayev

Small playground with 4 basketball courts, one hand ball wall (2 sided, so 2 courts), a kids hang bar play area with slides as well as a small adult pullup bar area with parallel bars and a pushup/ab platform. Located right next to an equine police station with horses visible across a chain fence.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

This playground is difficult to recommend for families due to persistent safety and cleanliness issues despite having decent facilities. While it offers basketball courts and playground equipment, multiple parents report concerns about homeless individuals and garbage that make it unsuitable for young children. Consider other Brooklyn playgrounds unless significant improvements are made.

“The worst playground in the area. Always dirty, lot of garbage around. On the bench almost all the time seating or sleeping homeless/drunk people. Which are very dangerous for kids. Kinda ridiculous as this playground right next to police department. Would not recommend this place to anyone.”

“I had requested so many times for more children playing equipment to local politicians but nothing...cause we are low income immigrants community. Is time to veto we get all the promises especially by the local politicians...”
