Not Your Nanny's Review

The Parks Department should retire this one.

The turtle fountain is fun and imaginative, but the equipment is old and has terrible sight lines. I lost my toddler for a very long three minutes here because you just can’t see anything from the ground, and the huge gates open to the sidewalk had me very concerned.

Keep the turtles and renovate the rest of it, please!
