BOISE BENCH, Idaho — Boise Parks and Recreation is asking for public input on two new playground designs to replace the aging structure at Liberty Park, located on the Central Bench.

The Liberty Park playground is the "oldest playground" in the park system, reports Boise Parks and Recreation. A permanent restroom will also be added.
The public can choose between two designs for the new structure.

Design #1:

The first design features "inclusive swings, transfer points to reach equipment, climbing structures, sensory play panels, a large eagle element, accessible ramps," and shade structures.
