The
227th Street Playground in
Bronx Park, June 2015, showing the standard WPA comfort
station. It seems that these once had windows, but now they are bricked up.
If you read through the
1934-43 Parks
Department press releases, you will see that during New Deal, every
playground had a supervisor who organized activities, taught classes, and so
on. I suspect that in smaller parks like this one, the supervisor had
office, storage, and classroom space in these comfort station buildings.
