This playground, like the street it lies on, honors St. Andrew, one of the twelve apostles and the patron saint of Russia and Scotland. A Galilean fisherman, according to the Bible, he was originally a disciple of John the Baptist before he was called from his fishing by Jesus, who promised to make him a “fisher of men.”
