O’Neil Park
This tot-lot is proof that quality play spaces can come in small packages. This recently renovated park consists of play for a wide range of users and abilities. Designed for the younger range of children 2 to 5 years, the SmartCube structure packs a ton of events focused on congnitive play and motor skills. The structure intended for children 5 to 12 years has components focused on spatial challenges and higher heights.
One way this play space distinguishes itself is by its use of color. Three blues (sky, blue and lagoon) and a pop of tangerine make this playground a neighborhood statement.
