[quote=Anonymous]Went by school and appears they are installing additional equipment, which was super exiting until I started looking closer.  Install doesn’t appear to be finished but what is now there looks the install was maybe messed up. Monkey bars and hanging rings so low that they would only work for a 4 year old, a slide that appears to be for toddlers. All strange because this is supposed to be for 5-12 year olds ( according to the signage that is on the equipment). It looks like they buried about 3-4 feet of the poles in concrete and covered it with rubberized mulch so the whole structure appears to be missing about 25percent of intended height and is almost sunken... like a playground that is sinking in quicksand. Of course kids can still figure out a way to play on it but the super low rings and low monkey bars seem to be a safety hazard— could totally see a 9 year old running right into it since they are at head level.

Sorry Fleet , your playground was already lame and this “improvement” looks like a complete flop! Hopefully this isn’t the final result because for now its looks pretty terrible.  This has to be the worst new APS playground around. [/quote]
