So you'll notice dump trucks driving by. Wish they would allow walks around with fur babies. It seems that Whittier is NOT...

It has been months that the slide has been closed off with a piece of wood that it so unsafe because kids are playing with it and the chain. My son has got so many splinters and I’ve seen kids trying to climb over it to use slide. Central Park same story broken playground parts that were removed and are not being replaced. During the weekends penn park is over crowded with multiple weddings, quinceañeras, kid parties so I wouldn’t suggest coming here on weekends at all if you want a...
