A Staten Island Playground With Two Play Zones
A renovated neighborhood park pairs toddler and big kid areas with a field, sprinklers, and a public restroom.
🛝 Split Play, Open Field
Gerard P. Dugan Playground is built around a clear family split. Swings and play zones serve toddlers and older children, with a dedicated seating area nearby. The renovated park also keeps a track and field area directly behind the play structures, giving the afternoon room to stretch beyond the playground itself.
A splash pad adds a water break, while a public restroom keeps the essentials close. The open layout makes it easy to keep both age groups in view, though shade is limited. The site stays open daily from 6 AM to 9 PM, and street parking is the only option. At 280 Mill Road in Staten Island, the setup can hold a longer family outing or a shorter stop when younger and older kids need different kinds of motion. The field offers a separate way to move after the play structures.
