Daniel F. Ford Playground at Emerson Garden

About Daniel F. Ford Playground at Emerson Garden

Surrounded by family homes and often hosting community events, Emerson Park is not only a beautiful site but also a gathering point for residents. The diverse perimeter plantings and clearly marked, inviting entrances render a gardenesque character to the park. The park has specimen trees, interesting shrubs, and a circular path around a grassy space. Bench groups are located near the spray pool and at intervals around the walk. Playground facilities include Brookline's first spray pool, and a colorful ship in the toddlers' lot.
