Part of the NYC Mayor's Community Parks Initiative, the redesign of Bloomingdale Playground has been hailed as the "gold standard" for accessibility and inclusiveness in the city. The universally accessible playground was inspired by the spectrum of human ability and the idea that mobility and perception of all kinds are extendable by use of visual, auditory and mechanical devices.
