As you can see from the photos, this is worth the trek all the way across the city. For the parent, you get iconic views , clean bathrooms, and coffee or sandwhiches/pizza nearby. For the kiddos, you get a gargantuan amount of enclosed space for kiddos to run around, exploring new things. I think that The Outpost does tend to skew for bigger kids, as babies 0-2 might want to participate but may have to wait with not putting things into their mouths etc. The splashbad is epic and kiddos will likely spend a solid amount of time pumping water and climbing unique structures not likely found elsewhere in the city.
