Southlawn Park — Attraction in Amarillo

Almost every person who has been there before says it was a really good park but they took out the old metal play ground out which had 5 slides and a tunnel with some other features added to the playset that was there and the gravel.

It has male/female 🚻 restrooms that are mostly closed all the time... Seems like the restrooms are never open/working. Just like every other park...
