Imagination Playground Burling Slip Opening

July 27, 2010

Rockwell Group collaborated with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation to realize the first fixed-site Imagination Playground park at Burling Slip in the South Street Seaport area of lower Manhattan. Opened in July 2010, the playground is a unique child-centric downtown oasis, combining sand, water, loose parts and play associates to encourage a constantly changing environment. In addition to gifting the playground design to New York City, Rockwell Group has raised an endowment fund to ensure that Imagination Playground Burling Slip is properly maintained for decades to come.
