Meridian Playground Play Area Improvements

Updated: August 1, 2024

Summer 2024

Thank you to everyone who joined us on July 31st at the Wallingford Farmers Market!

Please take our play area design options survey to share your input and select a preferred design concept.

This project aims to make site improvements to the play area located within the western half of the former Home of Good Shepherd property. Most components of the play area were constructed in the early 1980s, and revised in 2002, and some equipment was replaced through a Neighborhood Matching Fund project in 2011. Several elements/features within the play area such as existing play equipment, art paving, play area ramps, custom-made v  slides, and rubber tiles need to be renovated or replaced.

Meridian Playground, 4649 Sunnyside Avenue North, 98103
