How we know this. Place details from the public Google business listing; facilities inferred from 100 visitor reviews; playground outlines and amenity positions from OpenStreetMap (ODbL), which is also what the size is measured on; aerial imagery from USGS (2023). Attributes appear only when the evidence clears our confidence bar, and review text is never republished. The unedited aerial shows tree cover, which is our second check on shade.
