Your eyes do not deceive, Noguchi Playscapes is being renovated! Piedmont Park is fortunate to have the only Playscapes of its kind by internationally renowned sculptor, designer, and architect Isamu Noguchi in the United States. Noguchi was officially opened in 19 76, so it's time for a little refreshing.

The City of Atlanta Office of Cultural Affairs has enlisted a top-notch conservation team to perform the professional restoration of Noguchi Playscapes. The work has begun and is scheduled for completion by mid-December.


glad to see this considering what a nightmare that playground had become.

this PDF is about the restoration is a good read on playgrounds in general
