J.J. Byrne Playground

Park Slope

A year-long renovation transformed this Park Slope playground into an action-packed destination with water cannons, a stream with spray jets, and separate zones for toddlers and older kids. Interactive panels by Brooklyn sculptor Julie Peppito weave in Revolutionary War history and farming themes, while the adjacent Old Stone House offers bathrooms and a dose of local lore.
