It's a playground with no rules, no parents and a lot of risk. It's called the playborhood, and it's an anti-helicopter parent's plea, to allow kids to take risks without any supervision.

He is author of the book Playborhood: Turn Your Neighborhood Into a Place for Play and blogs at playborhood.com. But not everyone is so keen on the idea.
