Pricing Snapshot
SummaryFree public playground.
AdmissionFree
Brookline Avenue Playground is one of the clearest official examples of an intentionally inclusive public playground in the region. Town materials state that the project emphasis was to create an inclusive playground accessible to children and caregivers of all ages and abilities, with ramps or at-grade entry, accessible walks and plazas, and specialized safety surfacing. The design also includes sensory, auditory, imaginative, physical, and environmental play elements along with water play and seating areas. It works well for families who want a true neighborhood park feel without giving up inclusive design thinking.
