Elizabeth Wood Park - Playground

Description

This small playground features modern elements and a unique, serpentine fence with painted balusters that can spin. Named for Elizabeth Wood, the first Executive Director of the Chicago Housing Authority, this playground is situated near the site of the Lathrop Homes, one of the first public housing projects in Chicago. The play area is entirely enclosed and there are some modern concrete benches to match the modern aesthetic of the equipment.
