Access planning

Accessible playgrounds in NYC

Accessibility can decide whether a playground is realistic for a family. Start here for playground and planning links where access, bathrooms, and sensory-friendly details may matter before leaving home.

Before making a special trip

Confirm current conditions if a ramp, transfer area, restroom, or sensory-friendly feature is essential. Playground surfaces, bathroom hours, and park access can change.

Where to look next

For many families, the best next step is to compare by borough, bathroom needs, and the amount of walking involved.
