      Easton Commons Park is under a tarp plus there's a splashpad and bathroom

      Bendwood *SPARK* park is under a roof. It has lots of ramps; is open on evenings, weekends as well as the summer; and is next to Bendwood (Houston) city park. It's also fenced in. You can't see it from the road but it's behind the public school.
