This park is small but has something for everyone. A walk along the river , hills for picnics , a lot of benches for reading, a dog park , a playground for kids and it is near restaurants .

Jonathan Ferrera

Nice views of the Chicago River , though the smell can be a bit upsetting. The park itself is very beautiful. Dogs are only allowed in a fenced-off dog park .

Expanded park reopened 7/19/12 with more swings , patio tables w/shade covers, and large half dome climbing structures . Renamed Montgomery Ward Park . Finally! They got it right this time.

Park #511, so aptly named because there are obviously 511 things to love about this place, including: dog park , waterfront view , hills , windy paths etc.

Dan Kim

One small water area and a couple tables to sit at.

Expansion of the playground has begun! The park is open, but the playground will not re-open until July (certainly in time for Taste of River North!).
