Donovan Park
Castle-like all-wood playground built by community volunteers in the 1990s, with a bell tower and curving wooden ramps. A Heights landmark for family photos.

Creator notes
What works here
Mornings before 10 AM are the only time the playground is empty enough to shoot. Wide shots through the wooden archways give a storybook frame. Be respectful of families using the playground.
