Description

Lyons Square Playground sits right next to the expressway, resulting in significant noise pollution. While the space features plenty of benches and tables, its restroom building remains incomplete. The children's play area is spacious, with a layout that helps keep kids from wandering off. For those using the outdoor workout station, winter brings a much quieter environment with fewer crowds. The grounds are monitored by security cameras and frequent police patrols.
