This new, natural-looking play area doesn’t resemble other Atlanta playgrounds. A large spider web structure is the center feature for kids and includes all types of ropes, cables and ladders to climb on. Circle swings, climbing elements and more make up the area, and everything looks as if it was made from wood – no bright plastic in sight. There is a smaller kid’s playground on the other side of the park (this one is more for ages 3 and older).

“The climbing structure was challenging for my 11-year-old and he had a blast climbing on it. Both of the kids could be on the circle swings and lay down in them while they were swinging.” – Felicia Barman
