With just one playground — Charybdis Playground in Astoria Park — this neighborhood keeps things lean on the kids' play front. The park itself is a solid green stretch with decent space to run around, but parents looking for a deep bench of playground options will need to venture beyond the immediate area. It's not a desert, but it's definitely not a playground paradise either.
