The 2014 renovation here was the pilot for Portland Parks & Recreation's Nature-Based Play Initiative, swapping conventional equipment for climbable logs, boulders, and an oversized sand pit with seasonal running water for river-and-dam building. It is a multi-year winner of PDX Parent's reader favorite playground poll.
