We love locations that fill a need for a large number of children who would not otherwise have opportunities for safe and active play.

Here is what Alexandra’s Playground looks for:

– is it in a neighborhood which lacks opportunities for safe & active play?

– is it in a neighborhood with economic need?

– will the site owner keep the playground open to the community?

– is the site readily accessible to the community?

– will the site owner commit to ongoing maintenance?

– will the site owner complete the necessary site prep?

– will the community be supportive of a new playground?

– will a large number of children use the playground on a regular basis?

A typical NY/NJ/CT Alexandra’s Playground:

– is designed to meet the needs of the community

– is approximately 1600 sq. ft

– uses IPEMA certified equipment, and engineered wood fiber safety surfacing

– may be located at a school or public park

– culminates in a community build
