Is this Heavan or is it the Eagle Rock Rec Center?


Not only is Eagle Rock Park and Rec Center right near my house, and my dogs love it, it is also home to the 1953 Neutra Recreation Center building.  So I thought it was pretty rockin' and we'd go there when we're taking a break from our first love, the San Rafael park on Colorado Blvd. 

Yesterday, however, we discovered that not only does this park house an architectural work of art, and is a great place for kids and adult kids alike, but it also has the coolest outdoor gym.  Really.  I hadn't seen this company's work before, but it is truly amazing stuff.  It's called Greenfields Outdoor Fitness and the equipment is rugged, smart, effortless, well-crafted and super fun to use.  We were on all the machines and playing like kids, much to my dogs annoyance.... 

I recommend going without the dogs because you'll want to stay on the machines as long as your muscles can stand it.  The side to side one that works your waistline?  A must.







So go enjoy and explore all the Eagle Rock Recreation Center has to offer, admire the Neutra in our midst and get a good work out.  Just don't forget to toss the ball for your dog too.

P.S.  It's also Cultural Historical monument #536.  FYI
