The playground, located near the Upper Edgewater Picnic Shelter, will serve children of all ages and abilities, according to a news release from Cleveland Metroparks. It is nearly one acre in size and features a range of nature play opportunities, including boulders, water and sand, climbing structures and shaded areas.
The play space is the largest of its kind in Cleveland Metroparks and was made possible through a generous gift by Brett and Teresa Lindsey and the support of additional donors. The playground has been in development since November 2018, when the Lindsey family donated $250,000 to Cleveland Metroparks.
Brett Lindsey is the CEO of Everstream, a Cleveland-headquartered internet fiber network for mid-sized and large enterprise businesses.
