What would you like the name of the future all-abilities playground at the Dublin Sports Grounds to be?

The City of Dublin is seeking input from the Dublin community on the naming of a new all-abilities playground located at the Dublin Sports Grounds Community Park.

The existing playground at Dublin Sports Ground is being rehabilitated into an all-abilities playground approximately 19,500 square feet in size which is over three times the size of the existing playground.  The all-abilities playground offers a “play for all” theme and includes a quiet zone, music zone, spinning zone, swinging zone, a toddler zone, and active play zones for ages two to five and five to 12. 

The playground area will also include the following amenities:

• Play Structures
• Sand Play
• Group Picnic Areas with Shade
• Sensory Path
• Benches and Seatwalls
• Hammocks
• Public Art

As a general guideline, names for the park should reflect the following considerations:

• Geographic location and characteristics
• Landscaping, topography, natural features
• Design amenities or features
• Historical significance
• Recognition of a significant contributor to the advancement of the City
• Land or area is traditionally known as...
• Adjoining neighborhood, area or street

The conceptual design for the neighborhood square was approved by the City Council on February 19, 2019, and is shown below:
