Grand Junction Plaza, located in downtown Westfield, is now open! This unique six-acre park features lots of public green space, trails, an amphitheater, and a children’s play area with a playground.
Children’s Play Area at Grand Junction Plaza
The playground at Grand Junction Plaza is an excellent place for families to play. The playground includes a massive play structure, with many opportunities to climb on the many ropes courses and nets that make up the primary structure. A small, self-propelled merry-go-round and other riding features make up the playground for big kids.
