Esther Short Park Inclusive Playground

Esther Short Park is home to the City of Vancouver's first fully inclusive playground, right in the middle of downtown. The official feature list includes a zero-entry merry-go-all, play hill, music garden, swings for all abilities, and a Roxall see-saw, making it a strong option for families who want inclusive play without leaving the urban core. Nearby lawns, restrooms, drinking water, and the park's water-feature area make it especially appealing for pairing playground time with markets, events, or a walk downtown. Because it sits in a busy civic park, expect more activity and less containment than a fenced neighborhood site.
