The New McLean Central Playground Opens Its Gates

By: Charlie Gallegos

On Saturday, March 29, McLean came together to celebrate a
long-awaited milestone—the grand reopening of McLean Central
Park and the unveiling of its newly renovated playground at
1468 Dolley Madison Blvd. What was once a dream fueled by
determination and community spirit is now a vibrant, inclusive
space where children can learn, play, and grow.

As our readers may remember, back in June 2023, five inspiring
women graced the cover of McLean Living magazine—the
powerhouse team behind the McLean Central Playground project.
These dedicated local moms worked tirelessly to raise $400,000
to revitalize the playground and create a space that reflects the
heart of McLean.
