What we cannot tell you
No source in our data records whether it is fenced, whether there is shade, the play surface, wheelchair access, restrooms, drinking water, among other details.
A missing detail means nobody has mapped it yet — not that the playground lacks it. If you know the answer, adding it to OpenStreetMap fixes it for every map at once, or you can send us a correction.
Need a detail before you go?
The source for this playground does not record a specific surface, restroom, shade, fence, or other visit detail. That does not mean those features are absent. The map point, source record and access evidence are still below.

The evidence in our sources:
- Mapped with access=yes, meaning open to the public

Evidence is not a guarantee. Park hours, seasonal closures, building work and local rules can all apply, and a playground inside a public park can still be closed on the day you arrive.
