Leslie Groves Park

Leslie Groves is another river side park, in Richland. The playground equipment is older, but still fun. On a pleasant Saturday morning it was buzzing with activity: walkers, bikers, children on the playground, families at picnic tables, and fishermen on the dock.

Playground: one large play structure with toddler sized slides, larger slides, and monkey bars branching off. 2/3rds of the play structure can be accessed by ramps.
Swings: 2 baby and 2 standard swings. You have to step down off a curb of significant height to get to the swings; there is no ramp.
Surface: mulch. Both the swings and playground structure are in recessed areas of mulch, but the play structure’s ramp is accessed from the surrounding sidewalk.
Shade: many mature trees shade most of the playground.
Adult seating: yes; swinging bench, stationary bench, picnic shelter
Climbing wall: no
Musical toys: no
Fence: no
Sidewalks: yes
Bathrooms: yes; no changing table, and though it is nominally ADA accessible the hallway and ADA stall might be a bit narrow.
Parking: lot, did not see any marked ADA spots in the lot nearest the playground.
