It's time to play!

Located on the Orthopaedic Medical Center campus, this park is open to the public 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day of the year.

Parking entrance is located on 23rd St., between Flower St. and Grand Ave. Pedestrian entrance on Adams Blvd.

This public playground on our downtown campus was funded by a lead gift from the Everychild Foundation and is designed to accommodate children in wheelchairs, leg braces, crutches and other barriers that leave them sidelined at traditional playgrounds. The nearly half acre play area features special equipment in a modern and creative environment where children with and without disabilities can play together. The playground has sturdy foam ground cover to protect children from falls and is wheelchair friendly. The park features colorful slides, tubes, bridges, swings, interactive puzzles, a quiet area, a dragon mister and lush landscaping for children ages two to 12. Through a joint use agreement with the City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks the playground will be open to the public seven days a week.

It is estimated that more than 42,000 children with disabilities and over 85,000 able-bodied children will visit the playground each year and it will be used by more children in a single year than any other universally accessible playground in the nation. The playground will benefit pediatric patients, their siblings and children from the entire community for years to come, and it will serve as a model for similar projects in other communities.
