The pedestrian bridge is the only thing that I seem to recognize. Anyone know if that same bridge is still there now? Many generations of kids have crossed that bridge!

Hey that was when that was a safe part of town

I too remember the pedestrian bridge and the funky bathrooms and outside water fountains. The big hill to the south of that bridge was a cool place when we were kids.

The bridge is still there. Does anybody remember the rocket ship that you played in?

I recall the rocket ship, the turtle, and monkey bars, the elephant slide, the swings, the horses. I bet those horse swings would be worth a pretty penny nowadays as antiques. We used pick our favorite color. Mine was blue.

I remember those old horse swings. My favorite color was the blue one too.
I recall if you got to swinging too high there was a pole in the back that would crack you upside the back of your head....ouch!
