1 / 3Lieutenant John H. Martinson Playground
📍 Staten Island, NY
Multi-zone playground with separate areas for toddlers and older kids, seasonal water sprinklers, adult exercise equipment, sports fields, and clean bathrooms with baby-changing facilities.
This park has something for everyone. There are playgrounds, various sports fields. There is so much to do at this park. It has slide and swings and bunch of monkey bars. Bathroom’s was clean. And there is also a diaper changing table for babies. Overall its very good park.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with children spanning toddler through school age who want a well-maintained, well-equipped park. The water sprinklers make warm-weather visits genuinely fun. Parents can use the exercise stations as kids play. Supervise ball games in the open section — there is no gate to stop balls rolling downhill toward the street.

“Pretty nice playground love it. Just hope there’s a gate on the bottom hill that can be closed so when kids plays ball it doesn’t roll down to the street :(”

Overview
Lieutenant John H. Martinson Playground covers a broad site with clearly divided age zones — a toddler section and a larger-kids area with slides, swings, and monkey bars. Seasonal water sprinklers activate in warmer months. Six-station adult exercise equipment sits alongside the play areas, letting parents stay active. Sports fields, clean bathrooms, and a diaper-changing table round out the facilities. One open section has no gate separating it from a downhill slope toward the street.
