Magenta Playground is a 1.21-acre (0.49-hectare) park in the Allerton section of The Bronx in New York City. It includes basketball and handball courts, a children's play area with a climbable seal sculpture, spray shower, and restrooms. Most of these were installed during a 1998 renovation.^[2]

The land for the park was acquired by New York City via condemnation in 1960, and opened as a park in 1966. The park is next to Gun Hill Road school (Bronx PS 41, K-12) and is operated jointly by NYC Parks and the NYC Department of Education. It is within Bronx City Council District 12.^[3] The name Magenta Playground dates to 1987, when the park was renamed.^[2]
