Raising Kids in South Park: Neighborhood Adventures
One of the best parts of raising kids in South Park is that family outings don't require packing up the car for a long trip across town. Whether it’s a morning at Grand Hope Park, catching a Sparks game at Crypto, or a short walk up Grand, living downtown gives our kids a front-row seat to a host of unique spaces and experiences.

Along Hope Street is a narrow courtyard behind a green fence, tucked in next to the California Children's Academy day care.

It's called the Breezeway, and it belongs to Kid City Hope Place.
