Scott Charles, this Beverly Park area had several various monikers, and sometimes sections of it were labeled differently. If you search photographs of the place you'll see all sorts of names. There's a book out about the place by Jay Jennings. Maybe that has all the official names; some of them people write online may be from their memories of what they knew it as, but all of these are from one NLA post I looked up:
This area was known as Beverly Park, Beverly Grove Park, Playland, Bradley's Beverly Park for Children, Kiddieland, Lucas Kiddie Land and the adjacent Beverly Ponyland or just Ponyland.
The Book Patch
"This book documents the history of Beverly Park, featuring 175 never-before-published photographs."
