Read more about this location

Roosevelt Playground offers a straightforward neighborhood sprayground attached to an updated playground and basketball court. Added trees for shade improve comfort for caregivers during hot-weather visits, and the refreshed play area helps the site work for siblings who want both wet and dry play. This is best viewed as a useful local splash stop rather than a feature-heavy spray park.
