East Denison Playground

From Brooklyn Centre Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search
The playground behind East Denison school is gone now but at one time had two baseball fields, two swing sets (for older kids), a tall sliding board, monkeybars, a basketball court, a horseshoe pit, and other amusements.
A second playground was aimed at the smaller children with a smaller sliding board, swing set, a small concrete tunnel, and a wading pool with a fountain at the center. Most of that is gone now since the elementary school closed down.
What most people don't know is that the playground sits on top of what was once a deep ravine. The ravine ran from West 25th St. all the way down to Jennings Avenue. The whole ravine area, even though now filled in, has never had any construction on it. Is the ground considered unstable?
