56. Charles Papa Playground

The Papa playground has two play areas–one for older and one for younger kids. It’s in a little copse of trees at 68th & Lansdowne Ave. The afternoon we visited, Zora played Billy Goat Gruff on the knolls surrounding the playground and a fierce neighborhood football game raged 50 yards to the north on the playing fields. There’s a sorta-retro see-saw in the older kids lot along with a cool stegosaurus rocker.
