Canarsie kids design upcoming playground
BY JESSICA PARKS
Canarsie’s latest playground
was designed by
Kings County’s leading experts
in fun — kids!
City officials incorporated
design tips from
neighborhood whippersnappers
in planning an upcoming
play space at PS 115,
which will feature a slew of
features mandated by the
park’s pint-sized patrons.
“That’s the great thing
about this program,” said
state Parks Commissioner
Erik Kulleseid. “Not only do
they benefit from it, they actually
get to design it.”
The new fun zone at
the Avenue M elementary
school between E. 91st and
E. 92nd streets — which
kick off construction with a
groundbreaking ceremony
on Friday — will include an
artificial turf field, running
track, basketball hoops,
play equipment, game tables
and benches, trees, a stage,
a gazebo with a living vegetation
adorned roof and an
outdoor classroom.
Nine-year-old Carlton
Benoit and his classmates
insisted the playground include
HAD ENOUGH?9>?
ENOUGH Cortisone Injections, Gel Shots, Orthopedic Consults and MRI’s?
ENOUGH popping ibuprofen like candy just to get make it through your daily activities?
ENOUGH worrying that you’ll never be able to stay active with your child or chase after your grandchild fearing
your joint or muscle pain will act up and cripple you again?
BEFORE YOU GIVE UP EVERYTHING YOU LOVE IN YOUR LIFE
Just because “everyone” says there’s no solution but surgery or resting the joint forever…

a half basketball court
and the running track, and
the youngster said officials
were wise to heed their advice.
“Now, we get to go around
a full track,” said Benoit. “A
real track!”
Benoit got involved in
planning the play space in
the third grade, and he looks
forward to finally getting a
chance to show his friends
before he graduates fourth
grade in June.
“I am most excited to see
every person in this school
being happy about this new
playground,” said Benoit,
who’s a real sweetheart.
The $1.4 million playground
is the sixth of eight
that are being built through
a $10.6 million state-funded
initiative to construct new
playgrounds in underserved
Brooklyn neighborhoods.
Councilman Alan Maisel,
who was unable to make the
groundbreaking, snagged
$250,000 in city funds for
the Canarsie playground as
