Help Design the New Willard Park Playground in Cambridge

Official title: Willard Park Playground Renewal

Open Community Planning Housing & Communities
Cambridge is replacing the playground at Willard Park with a $630,200 upgrade. The city wants families to help decide what features and equipment should be included. There's also potential for a splash pad in the future.

Why This Matters

Got kids who play at Willard Park? This is your chance to shape what they'll climb, swing, and slide on for years to come. The city is building a premium-level playground designed to be inclusive for children of all abilities. A splash pad might be coming too.

What Could Change

The playground will be completely renewed with new equipment selected based on community input. The design will prioritize accessibility and inclusive play. A splash pad or misting station may be added as part of future enhancements.
