Located south of Willoughby Avenue between Adelphi Street and Clermont Avenue, and adjacent to Clinton Hill Elementary School, this playground is named for Albert Lysander Parham (1914-1990). Mr. Parham generously left Parks $263,700 to fund the extensive renovations made here in 1990. Born on May 11, 1914, Parham was a lifelong Brooklyn resident. A beloved local philanthropist, he provided the funding that made possible the community garden known as Albert’s Garden in Manhattan. Albert Parham died on March 29, 1990, leaving a legacy of improved parkland that generations of children will enjoy.
