The
playground
at
Goudy
Square
Park
reflects
it's
location
in
Chicago's
Gold
Coast:
luxurious.
The
current
playground
equipment
was
installed
in
2014
and
was
made
by
the
company
KOMPAN;
it
has
distinctive
bold
geometric
patterns
and
large
elements
meant
for
traversing
and
climbing.
There
is
a
large
and
sprawling
play
structure
intended
for
older
children
including
a
few
slides,
a
large
twisted
climbing
net,
some
monkey
bars,
and
other
elements.
There
is
also
an
area
dedicated
to
younger
children
with
a
smaller
play
structure
and
a
play
car.
Lastly,
there
is
the
standard
set
of
swings
and
a
few
sculpted
animals
scattered
through
the
play
area.
The
other
features
of
this
park
include,
according
to
the
Park
District
website,
"ornamental
metal
fencing,
period
light
fixtures,
brick
paths,
and
a
limestone
and
bronze
drinking
fountain
with
a
turtle,
frog
and
fish
produced
by
Walter
Arnold"
-
luxurious
indeed.
The
play
surface
is
mostly
soft
rubber
with
some
low
walls
and
plantings
around
the
perimeter.
The
play
area
is
fully
enclosed
and
somewhat
shaded
by
large
trees
and
there
are
lots
of
benches
throughout
the
playground.
