Livingstone Park
Park
👍👍 Great little park. Fenced in to allow kids to play with little risk of getting onto the road (which is not high traffic anyway). But people need to do do a better job at closing the gate when they open it, maybe the city could install a spring which closes automatically? Anyway, great park for litt...

Old Orchard Park
Park
👍👍 It's a wonderful playground for kids, even with the pandemic. It has a great grassy area, but two minor concerns are the small tunnel under the tiny bridge, and some of the kids there are troubling. Then again, I definitely look a bit too much like tween to say that the kids will approach anyone :P
