It’s likely because over decades the soil became compacted for exactly that reason: kids running over it for years.

It won’t be a wonderful park if all of the plants die.

It’s not good that the soil is compacted. The park is for everyone, not just the kids. A better solution might be to give them an area to run around (although a large part of the park is already dedicated to a playground) and then put down more resilient ground cover than grass.

The park frankly looked beautiful when it was closed during the early months of the pandemic, and the wild groundcover and grass grew unchecked for a while.
