New swing set for Merton-Cleveland play lot

The tiny green corner of Merton Street known at the Pottery Playground will get a new swing set. City Council today approved a motion from Josh Matlow (Ward 22) and seconded by Jaye Robinson (Ward 25) to buy and install the swing. The park has some play facilities and a splash pad but no swing. The Pottery Playground is a former residential site that was re-purposed as a playground. It sits at 601 Merton a short distance west of Cleveland Street.
