This. It's amazing what happens when property taxes can be spent indulging the wealthy instead of supporting the poor

Feel free to advocate for it OP. With enough community support stuff like this can happen. That said, most playgrounds operated by DPR have several accessible features. I don’t think there’s one that is quite so accessible for mobility challenges though.

Clemyjontri is terrible. Designed for little kids but no fences or gates. DH and I were run ragged chasing our kids all over the place. Cute idea, poor execution.

Why don't the people that live in DC take care of our public parks the same way the people in that community take care of that park?

Whenever they say "for everyone" or "for all' something is actually being taken away from us.
