Washington Heights, Fort Washington Avenue Between 173th and 176th Streets

This is J. Hood Wright Park and that's the George Washington Bridge in the distance. From the link just given I learned that the playground equipment was designed to resemble the George Washington Bridge and that there is a sculpture there by Terry Fugate-Wilcox, installed in 1974, which is expected to diffuse by the year 3000. I, myself, have no expectations about the year 3000.

For more photos of the park, including what must be the aforementioned sculpture, go to the Bridge and Tunnel Club site and scroll down the page to the two side-by-side photos.

See map.
