1970s Rotary Tot Lot
GP Rotary first built the Rotary Tot Lot on this site in the early 1970s. The playground became an immediate favorite for community children. Parents from all over the Pointes have brought children here for over 40 years! In the late 1990s a new generation of Grosse Pointe children were treated to a completely remodeled, rebuilt & rededicated playground. Built with focus on all the most modern up-to-date standards, the Tot Lot still today in 2017 meets or exceeds all safety, ADA and building code requirements. The playground is more than 50% barrier-free and handicapped accessible even though when it was built there were no requirements for any handicapped accessibility. And while you cannot see it the foundation of the playground was composed almost entirely of recycled materials. Truly a playground that remains not only loads of fun but built with respect for the past, present & future.
