My co-workers and I were @ this park doing Census Taking as part of our job @ North West Side Housing Center. I found it to be a place of gathering for all the nearby friendly neighbors. I did notice that it needs some maintenance. For example, one of the trees needs new mulge around it. Also, I was able to enjoy some Tacos from “El Azteca” on one of the park’s picnic benches, with one of my co-workers @ the end of our shift.

The summer camp leaders must make sure children pick up after themselves after snack time. There were milk cartons and pears everywhere. Im disappointed because we must teach children to respect our neighborhood and the environment by throwing away our trash!

As Chicago Parks go, this one is ok. The field is sprawling and in fairly good condition. The playground is extensive and the sprinkler is great for kids in the summer. I havent been in the field house. The benches by the baseball diamonds should be replaced as theyre sinking into the ground and Id love to see some flowers somewhere.

Blackhawk Park offers a lot but its kind of old-fashioned it has small buildings a big yard lots of trees perfect for playing tag and a pool and a gym but both are on the smaller side.

Nice park, but they need to invest more to it. they have a soccer field section freshly new (fake grass)... but really need to fix the play ground its all wood chips, (cheap) they need to invest in the rubber play ground flooring instead with all the kids that play here. My guess is because its predominately a Hispanic area they left it like sh#t, but go up to the parks in the white neighborhood and they have all the nice swings and rubber Matt flooring... smh

The neighborhood park its ok but the problem I have is it needs more cops patrolling looking out. There are some people coming in the park causing problems sometimes. Families are just trying coming in the park just to have some time with there kids without being bothered by some gang member.

Their summer camp is good. They have an indoor pool at this location and tennis courts. You will need to chase away people if you want to play tennis as theres always someone playing on the tennis courts.As with all the Chicago parks, the field house could use a major update.Generally good for kids.#CitiExperts. @Localguides

My son husband and I had to flea the facility as an argument broke out amongst a couple of males right in front of the park. One went inside the house and the others started running that was out clue to make our escape from the park. My son was so terrified that he said in a soft voice that he never wants to come back to this park. Its real sad. We had to drive up Fullerton to go to Riis park. Oh yeah that happened morning hours.

They need to open the gym area. Open gym to people that wanna play basketball. The park has potential, but no attraction to bring ppl in. Just a yeah we have it, but no you cant use it. Its called a public park.
