Hadley Park Improvements
Construction is expected to be complete November 2025.
The playground is temporarily closed for construction.
Looking for an alternative playground to enjoy while this one is closed? Check out the 5-12yo playground at Callery Park, or the 2-5yo playground at Crowley Park. Both of these playgrounds are in the Highlands neighborhood, and both were upgraded to be universally accessible in 2023.
