"The Library Park"

"Library Park" or Joan Lorentz Park, at 459 Broadway
Apparently the Main Library Park is actually "Joan Lorentz Park".  I have to say, I like everything about this block on Broadway: the beautiful new library, the playground, a nearby Starbucks, and my Alma Mater!  
This playground is slightly void of structures and swings considering the traffic it encounters, but it's quite clean and has some really fun features (like a weird disk-type thing that spins when you put your weight on one side- I almost fell off but it was worth it!)  
This is another park that's way too hot in the summer.  Baby trees equal sweaty grownups.  I am kind of sad that they did away with the park that was once under one of the huge trees here.  But this one is sufficient, and I like the amount of company, as it's always well populated.
