Lower Falls Playground & Ball Field
A quiet neighborhood playground that never feels crowded, with a full ball field beside it.
Because Lower Falls is Newton’s smallest-feeling village, its playground is the one you go to when everywhere else is packed. Standard modern equipment, good swings, and a bench line with actual shade.
The adjacent field hosts little-league practices on weekday evenings. Parking is easy, which cannot be said of most Newton playgrounds.
