MapOfPlayAn image search on keword "Oaklandon" has yielded a bunch more images of the wooden play area that (beyond pictures) exists only as fond memories in the minds of those park-goers fortunate enough to have visited this unique creation. I would surely like to learn who was actually behind designing and building this work of art. I feel a research project coming on...

Oaklandon Play Park is located near Oaklandon Road and 65th Street. Oaklandon's unique feature is that it is a wooden playground. It is nicely shaded and has many places to sit while children play. It also features a gazebo. The playground sits near some railroad tracks . . . if you're lucky a train will go by and the kids will love it! Though it is an older playground, it is well-maintained and kids will appreciate its uniqueness.
