The structure in the older children’s playground is designed to look like the original wooden roller coaster, "Scenic Railway;" also included is a streetcar with trolley tracks and larger than life popcorn, ice cream cone, and candy apple sculptures. The tot lot looks like a carnival area, with a miniature railway, and has a small zoo of life-size concrete animals. The water spray structures are carousel-themed.
