I wanted to pass along this article about a "senior play ground" that opening in Hyde Park. Residents campaigned for a facility to help older people get fit.This sounds pretty special and could serve as a model for cities in the US.
There are six low-impact fitness machines which includes a cross-trainer, a stationary bicycle and sit up bench. The park is free and outdoors.
The playground is aimed at people older than 60 and is modeled after similar play areas elsewhere in Europe. People of any age are welcome but the signage refers to the playground as "Hyde Park Senior Playground".
