Mrs. Cooney called for an ambulance on her cell phone, and it arrived just a couple of minutes later. Some guys got out, and they put Miss Small on a stretcher and carried it into the ambulance. We asked them to put their siren on when they drove to the hospital, but they wouldn’t. It was still cool anyway, having an ambulance right on the playground.

I think the last sentence means this. Am I right?
It was still cool anyway because we had an ambulance right on the playground.
Is “having an ambulance right on the playground” a dangling structure? Grammatically its subject is “it” but that doesn’t make sense.
