Kennedy separates play for ages 2–5 and 5–12 within a fully enclosed playground with poured-in-place rubber, climbing, sliding, swinging, rocking, spinning, sensory play, and fitness equipment.
DPR calls shade limited and publishes no specific accessible route, slope, transfer, or equipment assessment. Its playground sheet says lot and street parking while the current facility page says no parking; the current facility page wins, and indoor hours and ID rules are not applied to outdoor play.
