Did you know that they climb all the way up to the outer top of the tunnel slide and sit up there with wet bathing suits and could slip and fall off crashing down on the rocks?? Did you see that it was cautioned off and kids tore off the caution tape, there are remnants of caution tape still there. ... Were the gardens meant for kids to run in and stomp all over the foilage?? If not, why are those cheap flimsy gates there that have a wide opening for kida to walk in? If you dont want people sitting on the cheap gates that are constantly broken, then why put it at the perfect height for sitting on, which they do! Do you want a child to die before you block off the pretty rocks around the slide or are they really meant for kids to climb up to perch on top of the tunnel slide...it leads right up to it. Would you add rocks next to an open window 5 stories high?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4579170676752494090.post-71111688716228419282010-05-05T23:05:17.915-04:002010-05-05T23:05:17.915-04:00Hi, I went there today and was burned terribly by ...Hi, I went there today and was burned terribly by it. So were my Kindergarten students, there's no shade structure at all and I think the designers need a swift kick in the pants. What is wrong with people? Do playground architects actually spend time with kids enough to know that they don't think to test the heat of a surface that might be extremely hot before jumping on it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4579170676752494090.post-75117785346958854802009-12-11T20:58:08.886-05:002009-12-11T20:58:08.886-05:00The "Mountain" play feature is designed ...The "Mountain" play feature is designed with a shade structure that will be installed before spring. <br /><br />The Union Square Partnership TeamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4579170676752494090.post-23999259691689924402009-12-11T19:06:47.848-05:002009-12-11T19:06:47.848-05:00Good point could be toasty!Good point could be toasty!Andrew Finehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11410776900972800733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4579170676752494090.post-90828003019930508602009-12-11T16:13:21.723-05:002009-12-11T16:13:21.723-05:00wonder how hot that metal orb will be in the summe...wonder how hot that metal orb will be in the summerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
