Description

Located in the Near West Side community, Park No. 578 is 2.03 acres and it offers patrons a new playground and water spray feature. This playground was completed in Summer 2016 as part of Mayor Emanuel’s Chicago Plays! program. 

While there is no structured programming taking place at this location, we invite you to check out our great programs offered at nearby Union Park.

History

The Chicago Housing Authority and the Chicago Park District worked to identify property for a park.  The Chicago Housing Authority owned property at W. Maypole Avenue and Wolcott Avenue in the Near West Side Community Area.  The Chicago Housing Authority transferred the property to the Park District in 2016 to create this park.  The park was developed with a playground and walking paths.
