It’s a shame that they have removed swings and all other features for children from Monroe Park
spent many hours in Monroe Park! Many childhood day memories! back in the 50’s!
Spent many hours in the park there and wee hours there in Benny’s with some famed local personalities.
I remember those swings.
We used to get high, after the bars closed, and channel our inner child!
my home away from home in the 50’s. Busted my head on one of those swings pushing someone. Ran up to the fountain and jumped in because I had blood everywhere. Would up getting 10 stitches in my head!
