Description
Tucked into the northern end of the park, this space opened in 1935 with a fan-shaped layout framed by scenic retaining walls. The grounds offer open space for games alongside play equipment, picnic tables, and game tables. The spray shower plaza operates where a wading pool once stood. In 1990, the site was named to honor local Inwood community leader and advocate Anne Susan Cahill Loftus.
