Playgrounds

Playground #1 Located on Linwood Avenue, this playground was completely renovated in 2000. It has swings slides and climbing apparatus for the kids and shaded benches for the adults with a water fountain for all to enjoy. This playground is near the pool, ice rink and the tennis courts.

Playground #2 The slides and climbing equipment connect into the wall making them handicap accessible. The incorporation of elements representing an ‘Old Baltimore’ theme – like rowhouse facades, a Bromo-Seltzer clock tower and a gazebo reminiscent of the Music Pavilion, one of Patterson Park’s lost landmark – make it like no other playground in the city. Situated under large shade trees atop a hill along Eastern Avenue between Milton and Montford Avenues, the playground replaces the old one that was near Gough Street. The fenced area includes separate play spaces for toddlers and older children plus an open area for running or tossing a ball.
