Description
Located in the Near West community, Park No. 574 sits on the former Rockwelll Gardens Housing complex. This new park is 2.45 acres and it offers a complete state-of-the-art fitness playground, which includes a .20 mile walking path, adult fitness stations, a zip line, challenge hills and slides, pommel horses, rings and a water feature. The playground was built in the Fall 2014 as a part of the Chicago Plays! program.
